During the Seattle Seahawks’ postgame press conference Sunday evening, linebacker and Super Bowl MVP Malcolm Smith‘s microphone was briefly hijacked by a so-called 9/11 “truther.” 
 
 “Investigate 9/11,” the unidentified man said into the microphone. “9/11 was perpetrated by people within our own government.” He was quickly shoved out of the room by security. 
 
 
 
 It’s unclear how the man was able to charge the press table so quickly, but he seems to have been wearing press credentials around his neck. The incident comes just days after Deadspin published a lengthy article that alleged Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll might be a 9/11 conspiracy theorist.

 EAST RUTHERFORD -- A Brooklyn man was arrested after he grabbed the microphone at the beginning of the news conference for Super Bowl MVP Malcolm Smith and spouted off a conspiracy theory. 
 
 UPDATE: News conference crasher tells NJ.com how he bypassed security. 
 
 "Investigate 9/11," the man shouted after the Seahawks' victory at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. "9/11 was perpetrated by people in our own government." 
 
 The truther was identified as Matthew Mills, a 30-year-old from Brooklyn, New Jersey State Police Capt. Stephen Jones told NJ.com. He was arrested for trespassing, 
 
 Mills appeared to have some sort of credential around his neck, something an official grabbed to examine after he was rushed off the podium. 
 
 
 
 Trooper Jeffrey Flynn of the New Jersey State Police told NJ.com that there 10 arrests as of midnight, none considered serious. 
 
 An NFL spokesman referred all questions about the incident to the state police.
– A member of the "9/11 truther" movement took over the microphone at a Super Bowl postgame interview last night, albeit briefly, Mediaite reports. As game MVP Malcolm Smith was being interviewed, the man got in a few words: "Investigate 9/11. 9/11 was perpetrated by people within our own government." As the man was ushered out, Smith suggested his press pass be checked. The man, since identified as Brooklynite Matthew Mills, 30, did have a pass on his neck, NJ.com notes, but it wasn't a Super Bowl one. The independent journalist tells the site that it was from a festival he'd written about. Mills says he originally just wanted to get near the game in order to conduct fan interviews, but when he saw an employee bus, he got aboard. When checked multiple times by security, "I just said I was running late for work and I had to get in there," he says. "I just saw my opportunity to get my word out there and I took it." Deadspin recently reported that Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll has also raised questions about what happened during the attacks.
