    Kootenai County GOP officials said Saturday that they didn’t know which company provided security for their event and told the Press to seek that information from the sheriff.

    “Bob (Sherriff Norris) was right there,” KCRCC chair Brent Regan said. “Nothing was done without him being aware.”

    Norris denied knowledge of the event’s security arrangements and said he didn’t know the security personnel.
