Quote:Gateway Pundit reporter Lucian Wintrich was arrested during his speech at the University of Connecticut this evening after he attempted to recover his notes, which had been stolen by a left-wing activist who stormed the stage.

Video footage from the event shows the activist grabbing the notes and walking away, after which Lucian Wintrich can be seen pursuing the activist, physically grabbing her, and recovering them.

Connecticut state law permits the use of “reasonable physical force” to recover stolen property. Nevertheless, it was Wintrich who ended up being arrested at the event.

The speech was met with disruptive protests from left-wingers on campus, who chanted “Go home Nazi” at Wintrich, who is openly gay and of Polish and Jewish ancestry.
