[Duncan Smith told the Spectator he was
confronted by a group as he was going
to an event outside the conference secure zone
and that at one point he was hit on
the head with a cone.
He said he was so angry that he was tempted to retaliate,
and that at that point the group backed off.

Spectator that officers were there within minutes,
that there were not thought to be any serious injuries
and that five people - three men and
two women - had been arrested.]
