According to Anthony Potter, who submitted the video, he was attending an event commemorating the appointment of a new president at the University of Arizona. Although he wasn’t personally aware of this, the governor of Arizona and President Trump were also in attendance that day.

Although this event was open to the public and being held on the campus of a public university, the fact that he was not known to others in attendance and was (legally) filming it apparently aroused suspicion. As a result, he was approached by the university police officer, as well as the Secret Service and FBI agents assigned to President Trump. This included one (unidentified) officer who proceeded to position himself right next to Potter.

I was at a ceremony for the new University of Arizona President Dr. Robert Robbins. I was there quietly filming, not aware that Tucson Mayor Jonathan Rothschild, Arizona Governor Doug Ducey, and President Donald Trump were also there with various other government representatives. However, I was quickly made aware of that by a University of Arizona cop. Along with numerous Secret Service and FBI agents, this campus police officer informed me that people in the crowd were “hyper sensitive” about me. His stated reason for that was because I’m a stranger that no-one knows and whom neither works at nor goes to school at the university, even though this was a public event. In the video, you see our brief conversation regarding profiling and my constitutional rights. – Anthony Potter
