WATCH: Hillary Clinton attacked by a flying shoe in Las Vegas [VIDEO]

Somebody this week threw a shoe at Hillary Clinton, the former Secretary of State and previous First Lady of the United States of America. Clinton was in Las Vegas to give a keynote speech during the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries meeting at the Mandalay Bay resort. As she began to speak, the shoe was thrown.

Luckily Clinton ducked, and even joked about what just happened.

"What was that, a bat? Is that somebody throwing something at me? Is that part of Cirque de Soleil? My goodness, I didn't know that solid waste management was so controversial," Clinton said. "Thank goodness she didn't play softball like I did."

AP reports:

Brian Spellacy, U.S. Secret Service supervisory special agent in Las Vegas, said the woman was being questioned and would face criminal charges. Spellacy declined to identify the woman, and he said it wasn't immediately clear what the charges would be. A black and orange shoe was recovered from the stage, Spellacy said. Ilene Rosen, the wife of a conventioneer from Denver who was seated in the second row, said she saw an orange object fly toward the stage from a side aisle and papers fluttering in the air. Rosen said the woman had walked down the aisle to within six rows of the front of the seating area, threw the items, turned around, put her hands in the air and walked toward the back of the room. Security officers quickly caught up with her.
