A Democratic Candidate Was Beaten and Knocked Unconscious at His Home
https://www.vice.com/en/article/93a8qp/pennsylvania-richard-ringer-assault On Monday morning, Ringer says, he woke up around 5 a.m., heard someone attempting to open his garage door, and saw a flashlight in his yard.
“I said, ‘I’m tired of this crap,’” Ringer, 69, told VICE News.
Ringer said a man was in his driveway with his back turned to him, so Ringer tackled him, and “as a result, we end up on the ground.” The man was larger, however, and Ringer said he was hit in the head “about 10 times.”
“He knocked me out, so I have no idea who the hell he was,” Ringer told VICE News.
