4. SOUNDBITE (English) Kyrsta Fauria, The Associated Press:
“He was shouting some stuff and it definitely deterred from Noem’s press conference and turned the attention onto him. It was only a matter of seconds before he was removed from the room, and they said that we weren’t allowed to follow him, but he did get loud and sound like a bit of a scuffle before he was restrained and taken out.”

STORYLINE:
Democratic California U.S. Sen. Alex Padilla has been forcefully removed Thursday by security officers from a news conference on immigration by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
Associated Press reporter Krysta Fauria was in the room when it happened.
“He was shouting some stuff and it definitely deterred from Noem’s press conference and turned the attention onto him. It was only a matter of seconds before he was removed from the room, and they said that we weren’t allowed to follow him, but he did get loud and sound like a bit of a scuffle before he was restrained and taken out,” Fauria said.
Video shows a Secret Service special agent on Noem’s detail grabbing Padilla by his jacket and shoving him from the room as the senator struggles to catch his breath while identifying himself.
“I’m Sen. Alex Padilla. I have questions for the secretary,” he shouted in a halting voice. He tries to push back into the room when a second guard appears.
“Secretary Noem was taking questions from reporters at the end of the news conference and was asked about the interruption. She said that he hadn’t reached out to try to talk to her and criticized kind the method of protest, saying that it was inappropriate,” Fauria said.
