Woman In Custody After Throwing Shoe At Hillary Clinton During Speech
It was unclear what the object was at first, but the woman who threw it said it was a shoe.
The incident happened moments after Clinton took the stage Thursday at an Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries meeting at the Mandalay Bay hotel-casino [in Las Vegas].
Clinton ducked but did not appear to be hit by the object, and then joked about the incident.
Security ushered out a woman who said she threw a shoe but didn’t identify herself to reporters or explain the action.
