Extremist Act Warning Before US Elections

The American government warned local and state officials of the rule of law of added threats to attacks on candidates and election employees by individuals with ideological discontent. A man entered Pelosi's apartment in San Francisco on Friday, screaming, “where is Nancy”, before he hammered her 82-year-old husband Paul. Police tell of the horror moments.

Our <x0-5s, who were called to the scene, saw Mr. Pelosi and the suspect holding a hammer. The suspect pulled the hammer out of Mr. Pelosi's hand and violently attacked him”, said Chief William Scott San Francisco Police.

The Speaker of the House of Representatives was not in San Francisco at the moment of the attack. Her husband was rushed to the hospital. Peloss spokesman later announced that 82-year-old had successfully underwent surgery for skull fractures and serious injuries to the right arm and hands. Police identified the suspect as 42-year-old David Depape, who had posted conspiracy theories on social media. US President Joe Biden described the attack as disgusting and said they should rise up against violence in politics.

“Reports to the media suggest the attack targeted the head of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi, who is the third highest official in the United States. The same calls this person made were heard during the convention's attack on January 6th. He called out: Where's Nancy? That's disgusting. There is no room for political violence in the United States”.

The 42-year-old faces a series of charges, including attempted murder. /A2/
