Reckless Runner Prompts David Cameron Security Scare

— -- A man who pushed Prime Minister David Cameron today and caused a security scare was actually just a jogger who didn't realize who he was bumping into.

The run-in took place just as Cameron was leaving Civic Hall in Leeds around noon and though the 28-year-old jogger was arrested, he was released shortly after it was clear that there was no criminal intent.

"It was apparent that it was a coincidence," a West Yorkshire police spokesman told ABC News.
