ST. PAUL, MINN. (AP) - Some members of Alabama's delegation to
the Republican National Convention got a scare when their bus
pulled up to the convention hall in St. Paul, Minn.
Retired Alabama Supreme Court Judge Terry Butts said he was on
the second bus in a caravan of four when a group of about 100
protesters approached the bus and one of them threw a brick through
a window.
Butts said the bus driver received small cuts from the shattered
glass and that he, his wife Suze and Jefferson County Commissioner
Bettye Fyne Collins were all covered with glass.
Alabama Republican Party chairman Mike Hubbard said no one was
injured in the incident but it made people mad.
