BUZZ
George Mason university economist Tyler Cowan was pepper-sprayed while teaching a class yesterday. As Reason.com reports:
The man entered Cowen’s classroom this afternoon, jumped on a desk, said he was placing Cowen under citizen’s arrest, and pepper sprayed Cowen in the face. Cowen ran, the intruder chased him, and students in the hallway caught the suspect and held him until the Arlington Police arrived and arrested him. The man wasn’t a student, Arlington County police officers say, and charges are pending…
Ironically, it seems Cowan was teaching on the topic of vigilantism at the time of the attack.
