Photographer: Secret Service agent choked me at a Trump rally- Lia Kerkman 6th

       A photographer covering a Trump rally claimed that he was chocked and slammed to the ground buy a secret service agent. A video of him trying to leave the event was posted on social media and the showed the whole ordeal. He said he stepped 18 inches outside of the pen and was almost immidiately grabbed by the neck and chocked, however he will not be pressing any charges. The secret service spokesmen is saying that they are looking into getting the exact details and circumstances of the situation.
      Wow! I'm sure the intentions of the secret service man were not to chock the man as drastically as he did. I imagine it was one of those situations where it was an instinct kicking in, in the spur of the moment... although maybe it wasn't. It seems very and unclear and just goes to show that being a photographer can come with risks.
