Suspect in attack on GOP nominee for N.Y. governor faces federal charges
Videos from the scene show the attacker climbed onto the stage near Rochester, N.Y., lunged at Zeldin’s neck and said, “You’re done.” Zeldin grabbed the man’s wrist and others tackled the suspect to the ground.
Zeldin later said that he was unharmed. He returned to the stage “to finish his remarks and thank the law enforcement officers who responded to the scene,” said Katie Vincentz, a spokeswoman for Zeldin.
