NY Post "The 51-year-old man whose shooting by the Secret Service disrupted President Trump’s press conference is a 6-foot-3 former licensed boxer who was previously charged with resisting arrest and disorderly conduct, according to a report.
"Myron Berryman has been charged with assaulting a law enforcement officer after allegedly approaching a Secret Service agent Monday evening while claiming to have a weapon.
"The officer shot Berryman in the torso when he “crouched into a shooter’s stance as if about to fire a weapon,” officials said.
"Berryman, who has lived in Dayton, Ohio, Forrestville, Maryland, and, more recently, Wheeling, West Virginia, was charged in 2012 with resisting arrest and disorderly conduct in Prince George’s County, the Washington Post reported.
"He sought to take his case to trial, but it ended in a plea in 2013, according to the newspaper." . . .
Something’s not quite right about this. The victim’s name is Myron Berryman, but no pictures are published yet. His sister says he’s a very mild mannered kind person.
. . . "She speculated that he could have been taking part in protests outside the White House, where demonstrators have been gathering since the killing of George Floyd in the custody of Minneapolis police.
“ 'Myron is always encouraging everybody,” she said. “He has never had anything negative to say. He always encourages people.”
"Authorities are trying to figure out if Berryman has a history of mental illness. No weapon was recovered from the scene of the shooting, officials have said." . . .
