BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (WCCO)


Jeremy Paul Olson of St. Paul was arrested Dec. 7, 2009 after
witnesses said he threw a tomato at former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin
during her appearance at the Mall of America.
Bloomington Police Department


Bloomington Police say a man threw a tomato at former Alaska Governor
Sarah Palin during her Monday appearance at the Mall of America, but
didn't hit her.


Officers say two of their own were hit by tomato fragments instead,
after the tomato hit the stage about 10 feet from Palin. People on the
second level balcony, where the tomato was thrown from, helped police
apprehend the man accused of throwing it.


Police identified him as 33-year-old Jeremy Paul Olson from St. Paul,
but they think he also goes by the name Jeremiah Wobbe. Police said he
was arrested and booked on assault and disorderly conduct charges.
Officers added that when they arrested him, they found two more
tomatoes he'd been carrying.


Palin was at the mall signing copies of her book, "Going Rogue," for
four hours Monday. She did not address the crowd, but did speak
individually to owners of the books she signed.


Guess it's too cold to take a shoe off there.


Not to mention that tomatoes are even more expensive out of season.

I'd have gladly sent my end of season spoils to any good arm on her
"bus tour."


Absolutely you would. You would never be the thrower. That would be
below your order.
