The Department of Public Safety says one person has been arrested after a demonstration in the Arizona House visitor's gallery got out of hand.
Capt. Damon Cecil says House security asked the protester to leave but he refused and continued to be disruptive. Cecil says he was arrested for trespassing.
Rep. Eddie Farnsworth says the man dropped to the floor of the visitor's gallery in an apparent attempt to make it harder to remove him. He says officers handcuffed the man and carried him out.
Dozens of people who wanted to testify at a House elections committee hearing on problems in last week's presidential primary election went to the gallery after the hearing ended. Democratic Rep. Ken Clark worked to calm down the crowd after the arrest.
