SA Premier Peter Malinauskas’ security detail launched into action yesterday, restraining a man at a press conference in the city.
Police say the 54-year-old Adelaide man was asked to move back by a plainclothes officer after “getting too close to the Premier”.
The man refused and then allegedly began acting in a disorderly manner, police said.
He was charged with disorderly behaviour and assaulting police after a scuffle unfolded.
The press conference was briefly interrupted.
The man has been bailed to appear in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on August 5.
