(THE GUARDIAN) — A British man has pleaded guilty to federal charges stemming from an incident in which he grabbed a police officer’s gun with a plan to shoot Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Las Vegas.

The 20-year-old Sandford could have faced up to 20 years in prison if he had been convicted at trial of both charges.
