British Man Detained for Running into David Cameron

The British police said that they would conduct a review of the incident where a man pushed and collided with the British Prime Minister David Cameron on a street in Leads.

In the video of the incident, the man identified as Dean Farley, was seen rushing at Cameron after he left a news conference and was walking toward his car.

Security officials immediately hustled away the man as he collided with Cameron. However, Cameron was unharmed and was quickly driven away from the place, reported the Associated Press.

Though Farly was arrested by the police, he was released soon as Farly said that he had no idea that he had bumped into the Prime Minister of Britain.

Farley said that he came to know that he had collided with Cameron an hour after the police arrested him. He also said that he was going to the gymnasium with his personal trainer.

"I didn't see David Cameron. I didn't know it was David Cameron until they let me out of the police van an hour later." "All I saw were a group of men in suits who came out of the Civic Hall," Farley said, reported the BBC.

Farley cast doubts on the security provided to Cameron as the officials could not prevent him from running in to the Prime Minister.

Elaborating on the experience, Farley said that it was disturbing to find himself lectured and jostled by the police and not being informed the reason for his arrest.

Meanwhile, security experts said the incident should be regarded as a breach.

"This is an embarrassing breach. There is no challenge [to the man]. The PM sees the individual before those colleagues who should have," a former Scotland Yard protection officer of 20 years service said, reported The Guardian.
