U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron’s stroll through Leeds was cut short on Monday when a “jogger” came close to slamming into him.
As Cameron walked out of Leeds Civic Hall, a man running at full-speed almost crashed into the prime minister, the BBC reported. Cameron was scooped up by his security detail and was reportedly uninjured.
According to the BBC, police apprehended the 28-year-old man, who was later “de-arrested.” Authorities said he was sprinting on his way to the gym.
The moment was caught on video and posted to Vine:
”No threats were made, and after the man’s details were checked, he was de-arrested and allowed on his way,” Chief Inspector Derek Hughes told the British news outlet.
To clarify re arrest in #Leeds as man came close to PM’s group: Nothing sinister, just a man in the wrong place at the wrong time….
