The Congressman put his hands on the man’s arm, pushed him from the
house and shut the door.

Congressman Steve Cohen called police to his Overton Park home today
after he physically removed a camera man from a doorway.

Cohen had called media to his home to discuss tomorrow’s election race
with challenger Nicki Tinker. Peter Musurlian, a documentary producer
and Armenian-American activist, was asked to leave. When he refused,
Cohen put his hands on the man’s arm, pushed him from the house and
shut the door.

Last year, Cohen opposed a resolution which would have condemned
Turkey for committing genocide against Armenians after World War I.
