Security intervened at a Donald Trump rally on Friday after a man jumped into the media area and climbed railings while the former president spoke.
Video footage from the rally in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, showed a bearded man wearing sunglasses breach a barrier surrounding the press pen and climb a riser on which reporters and camera crews were stationed.
Security personnel pulled the man from the riser, before law enforcement took him to the ground. Law enforcement used a stun gun to subdue him, the AP reported.

The incident took place 75 miles from where Trump was shot at during a rally on July 13 in Butler. One rallygoer was killed and two others were injured, while Trump was hit in the ear.
The man was taken into custody before being released, the Daily Beast reported, citing Johnstown Police.
No information concerning his identity or potential motive has yet been made public.
