EAST RUTHERFORD -- A Brooklyn man was arrested after
he grabbed the microphone at the beginning of the news conference for
Super Bowl MVP Malcolm Smith and spouted off a conspiracy theory.
"Investigate 9/11," the man shouted after the Seahawks' victory at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. "9/11 was perpetrated by people in our own government."
The truther was identified as Matthew Mills, a 30-year-old form Brooklyn, New Jersey State Police Capt. Stephen Jones told NJ.com. He was arrested for trespassing.
Mills appeared to have some sort of credential around his neck, something an official grabbed to examine after he was rushed off the podium.
Trooper Jeffrey Flynn of the New Jersey State Police told NJ.com that there 10 arrests as of midnight, none considered serious.
An NFL spokesman referred all questions about the incident to the state police.
