Prosecutor says man accused of charging toward Ohio governor candidate wanted to ask questions
Canfield, Ohio (AP) — Prosecutors say a man accused of charging toward Ohio gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton during a campaign stop wanted to ask the Democrat questions, according to Mahoning County Prosecutor Lynn Maro during the man's arraignment on Tuesday. The 38-year-old Patrick Havas, who pleaded not guilty to multiple charges, knocked down two people before being stopped by troopers.
No weapons were found during a search of his cellphone, which law enforcement had consent to access. Authorities stated Havas appeared in the tent wanting to ask questions, as evidenced by videos showing him recording and moving forward, calling out her name.
