An Occupy demonstrator had an apparent seizure while protesting Glenn Beck's book signing in Alabama Friday, forcing the Occupy participants to end their protest early.

WKRG-TV reported hundreds of Beck fans turned out in Fairhope, Ala. where he was signing copies of his latest book, "Being George Washington." But when Beck arrived, about two dozen Occupy protesters started chanting at the front of the line.
WKRG described the scene:
For about 15 minutes the shouting was heated until one of the protestors fell and began shaking uncontrollably. Police officers and other protesters surrounded the young man until an ambulance arrived. This appeared to take the wind out of everyone’s sails and the protest stopped on a serious note. The book signing continued without the loud chanting that preceded it.
