As Axios reports;
In a video posted to X by Fox News reporter Bill Melugin, Padilla was seen being grabbed and pushed out of the press conference while saying he had "questions for the secretary."
- "I am Senator Alex Padilla," Padilla said in the video. He was then grabbed by multiple men and shoved out of the room.
- Further video showed Padilla being handcuffed and detained in the hallway outside the room.
- "He is not currently detained, and we are working to get additional information," Padilla's office said in a statement on Thursday.
Noem subsequently said she would contact Padilla and "try to have a conversation," NBC News reported.
