Secret Service protects Sanders as audience members rush stage

Members of Bernie Sanders’s Secret Service team surrounded him as audience members at a rally on Monday tried to rush the stage, according to multiple reports.

{mosads}At least three people were led away by security at the Oakland, Calif., event, held eight days before the state’s June 7 presidential primary.

The Vermont senator, who is trailing Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination, was unharmed when agents leaped onto the stage and pulled him away from his microphone as the unidentified attendees pushed through audience barriers.

“It was handled professionally by the Secret Service,” said Sanders spokesman Michael Briggs, according to CNN.

A protester also tried to jump onto Sanders’s stage in March during a rally in Ohio.

Sanders was spotted later Monday in Oakland at Game 7 of the Golden State Warrior’s Western Conference Finals win against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
