LAS VEGAS: Woman Arrested After Throwing Object At Hillary Clinton

The Associated Press reports:

A woman was taken into custody after throwing what she described as a shoe at Hillary Clinton during a Las Vegas speech. The incident happened moments after Clinton took the stage Thursday at an Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries meeting at the Mandalay Bay hotel-casino. 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. Authorities said the woman would be arrested.

Among Clinton's jokes following the incident: "Thank goodness she didn't play softball like I did."
