A NewsNation reporter who was arrested in Ohio on Feb. 8 while filming Gov. Mike DeWine speaking at a news conference has since been released from jail.
Evan Lambert, who is based in Washington D.C. where he works for the Nexstar Media Group-owned cable channel, had traveled to Ohio to cover the news conference about the freight train derailment in East Palestine, a small town on the border with Pennsylvania, according to NewsNation.
However, the reporter was allegedly forcibly removed from the event by authorities and subsequently arrested.
He was released from the Columbiana County Jail later that day, shortly after 10 p.m. ET., on charges of disorderly conduct and criminal trespassing….
