      Then a woman who did not explain her role tried to negotiate w/ me, saying I could record audio & “pull quotes” from it if I wanted to. I tried to explain that I wasn’t writing an article and that the purpose of my attendance was to video record the speech. Just doing my job.

      This woman, who I later learned is Shennell McCloud, the Executive Director of “Project Ready," insisted that Ms. Ryan would not take the stage unless my camera was gone, but moments later, Ms. Ryan took the stage. At this point, we all left the room to discuss further.

      The mystery man, still refusing to give his name, returned to the ballroom. I warned him not to touch my camera. At the same time, Ms. Ryan was thanking Rep. Payne for his introduction, stating “it’s an honor to be in your district.” (New Brunswick is not in his district.)

      Ms. Ryan’s remarks were then interrupted by a visit from the mystery man, who I later learned is named Joel Morris and works as a “security guard” for Ms. Ryan. Mr. Morris approached the podium & said something to her. She nodded and went silent for the next 27 seconds.

      Rather than, you know, pushing the camera’s record button to stop the video recording (or just turning it off), Mr. Morris proceeded to unplug my camera, grab the tripod it was connected to, and steal the entire thing.

      As soon as Mr. Morris touched our camera, I spoke up, saying: “Don’t touch my camera, please. Put that down. Don’t you dare. Put that down, sir.” At the same time, Ms. Ryan began attempting to explain to the crowd why they were witnessing the theft of our camera.

      “When I speak, I don’t have news covering my speech,” explained Ms. Ryan, adding she wanted to be able to have an “unfettered” discussion. Never mind the other video camera (or the other news reporter) that still remained in the room.

      Now guilty of 3rd-degree theft of movable property under NJ law , Mr. Morris fled towards to the front desk of the hotel, bringing the stolen property w/ him. I gathered some of my belongings and caught up w/ the thief, demanding he return the camera. He eventually gave it up.

      This should have been the end of it. I had retrieved the property that Mr. Morris had stolen from me, and at this point, I had ZERO interest in returning to an event where I had quickly come to feel unwelcome. But then Mr. Morris began to get violent w/ me right there.

      I was carrying my phone (which was recording audio) in one hand & the camera/tripod in the other. I tried to get away from the perpetrator, but within seconds, he began assaulting me without provocation in the lobby & continued his assault as he forced me out of the building.

      I screamed and used some profane language towards Mr. Morris as he grabbed my left arm and twisted it behind my back, injuring my forearm and shoulder. I later gave a statement to NBPD's Ryan Daughton & he told me that he'd prepare a police report. I intend to press charges.
