“His words as he tried to stab me a few hours ago were ‘you’re done,’ but several attendees [including running mate Alison Esposito] quickly jumped into action and tackled the guy,” Congressman Lee Zeldin described the attack on him Thursday afternoon by a man with a pointed weapon who then dragged him to the ground in Fairport, NY. Katie Vincentz, a spokeswoman for Zeldin’s campaign, tweeted that the suspect tried to stab the congressman. Advertisement
