A woman was harassed, mocked, threatened with pepper spray, and violently dragged across the floor of a Republican town hall meeting by a group of men because she spoke during Rep. Ron Mendive’s address.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — A Republican-hosted legislative town hall meeting in northern Idaho descended into chaos after three plainclothes security workers forcibly removed a woman who was heckling the speakers.

Kootenai County Sheriff Bob Norris and others at the Coeur d'Alene town hall will be investigated by an outside agency after a woman was dragged out of the event.
