KS: Independent Candidate for Governor Arrested at Tea Party Event

From KSAL:
A Salina man running for governor was arrested Thursday after an apparent run-in at a "Tea Party" rally. Police say that 59-year-old Ken Cannon was arrested at his home in Salina Thursday afternoon. According to Police Captain Mike Sweeney, Cannon was involved in a confrontation with 61-year-old GregoryThoman, from Jamestown. Sweeney says that the confrontation did not involve Tea Party politics. Instead, it stemmed from problems Cannon had as teacher in the Concordia area. Thoman was part of the school board that Cannon had problems with.
