CBS News Reporter Sopan Deb Arrested While Covering Donald Trump Rally
He's charged with resisting arrest despite no evidence of doing so.
CBS News reporter Sopan Deb was arrested Friday night while covering protests surrounding Donald Trump's canceled rally in Chicago.
Deb, who has covered the Republican presidential front-runner's candidacy since last summer, was filming video of a man whose face was bloody and lying on the ground near police at the time of his arrest, according to a "CBS This Morning" report Saturday.
"Deb continued to roll as police kept watch," the CBS report noted. "Without warning, Deb was grabbed from behind and thrown to the ground."
A police officer placed his boot on Deb's neck to keep him in place on the ground, according to the account he provided his network.
