LAS VEGAS—Authorities say an apparent autograph seeker has been detained at the O.J. Simpson armed robbery and kidnapping trial after approaching the defendants at the end of morning testimony.
Sgt. David Hicks, a marshal at the Clark County courthouse in Las Vegas, says a 49-year-old woman was escorted out of the courthouse but not arrested after the incident before noon on Thursday.
Hicks says the woman appeared to be seeking an autograph from Simpson while he was in the courtroom. She was detained as she approached co-defendant Clarence "C.J." Stewart.
Bailiff Arthur Sewell intercepted the woman who approached from the audience section of the courtroom. The jury already had left the room.
The woman's name and hometown are not being released.
