Video: Gay couple’s confrontation with LDS guards

Newly released film footage shows four LDS Church security guards separating and handcuffing a gay couple after the two men kissed on the Main Street Plaza.

The Salt Lake Tribune obtained the film through an open-records request with Salt Lake City. The church provided the film to the city as part of a prosecutor’s review of trespassing charges against Matt Aune and Derek Jones.
