House speaker Nancy Pelosi says she and the rest of her family are “traumatized” by the disturbing hammer attack on her husband Paul, allegedly by an intruder who was looking for her.
“Yesterday morning, a violent man broke into our family home, demanded to confront me and brutally attacked my husband Paul,” she said in her first statement on the assault.
“Our children, our grandchildren, and I are heartbroken and traumatized by the life-threatening attack on our Pop. We are grateful for the quick response of law enforcement and emergency services, and for the lifesaving medical care he is receiving.”
