It is screwed but you will need to cut notches to screw it out. Good luck!

Dremel or hack saw. Make an + so that you can use a phillips to get it out. If you search there are a million posts on this.

I can usually get them out with a pair of needle nose pliers. They're not particularly tight, so if you get a good grip on them with the pliers, they usually come out with relative ease.
