NewsNation reporter arrested during East Palestine train derailment briefing

Описание: While Gov. Mike DeWine and other local, state, and federal officials were announcing the lifting of the East Palestine train derailment evacuation order on Wednesday, a reporter at the briefing was taken into custody.

The reporter, identified as Evan Lambert of NewsNation, was apparently trying to do a live report as the news conference was taking place inside the gymnasium at the East Palestine Elementary School. Video captured by 3News shows law enforcement surrounding Lambert and ordering him to leave.

As the gathering moved beyond the doors of the gymnasium, police are seen taking Lambert to the ground. A female voice in the background is asking officers to stop, shouting "This is bad. This is bad. Stop this. Evan, I'm sorry."

According to NewsNation, Lambert is facing charges of disorderly conduct and criminal trespassing.
