They said the suspect then pulled the hammer away from Mr Pelosi and used it to"violently assault" him, before being tackled by officers.
At some point, the suspect searched for the Democrat leader shouting,"Where is Nancy? Where is Nancy?"San Francisco Police Chief William Scott told a news conference on Friday night that the attack on Mr Pelosi at their San Francisco home was"intentional".Mr Scott declined to comment further on a possible motive for the assault and said the investigation was ongoing.
He was quick to condemn the attack on Mr Pelosi, calling it"despicable", and drew parallels between the attack on the House speaker's husband and theSpeaking at an event in Philadelphia on Friday evening, he addressed reports that the assailant had repeated the"same chant" heard during the 6 January 2021 riots.
"Every person of good conscience needs to clearly and unambiguously stand up against the violence in our politics, regardless of what your politics are," he said. DePape, 42, has been charged with attempted homicide, assault with a deadly weapon, elder abuse, burglary and several other felony charges.Mr Pelosi was rushed to hospital and underwent surgery for a skull fracture and severe injuries to his right arm and hands, a spokesperson said.
Read local newspapers reports and it seems he had been to a gay bar and picked this person up and was arguing with a male prostitute about payment. His 911 call says he knew the guy and was a friend
Homophobic attack
Stop trying to turn this into something it's not, he was having a gay orgy, no attack by a trump supporter ect
Did it smell like a raging bumming session when the police got there ?
Terrible thing to happen but we’ve had 2 MPs murdered in Uk and this is becoming really worrying
I don't want to give credence to the conspiracy theories, but it does seem odd that there wasn't more security at the Pelosi house, given that it had been previously targeted, and I can't help but note the proximity to the midterms.
Sly News, peddling what BS they need you to think...
USA is even more of a basket case than the UK judging by the nutters comments on here. You're going to end up with dead politicians soon, like the UK have had. Yet your Trump.Qanon fans will carry on the denial.
LOL most sus thing ever. Gated community they have guards and probably an insane security system the cops got there they both just chillin in undies with hammers lol Like come on now. They wont turn over the security footage
Why they were both in their underwear and wrestling with a hammer is suspect. Intruder being a male prostitute and illegal alien, just make it really weird
Grindr hookup gone wrong.
Naturally
🤡🤡🤡
Lol, judging by the comments people already know the truth and the media is about to tell us some BS.
The media is about go scorched Earth ‘fake news’ on this story. It was a guest in the Pelosi house and the truth is out so when you try and blame Trump we all know you’re fakenews
A terrible incident. The crime wave brought on by Democrat 'soft on crime' policies, defunding police and inaction on rising crime has just come full circle to bite them. Perhaps now they will understand how the rest of America feels
Gotta have a heart to be heartbroken! Nancy doesn't have a heart!
Given that the guy who allegedly evaded security, broke in the house, stripped down to his undies, befriended Pelosi, wrestled a hammer off him, and them waited for the police to arrive before attacking, was a BLM supporting drug addict, call me Mr skeptical.
Wonder is she the cause of it.?
Careful with that hammer Eugene.
Understandable and wish Mr Pelosi good recovery
I would go if I just found out my husband had a gay lover
Her husband was having a gay hookup and it went sideways.
That’s why they did it. I hope he recovers soon.
Sky news look at your comments section that shit is going to be taken out in the trash really soon
I have sooooo many questions
Sex games gone wrong.
I suspect Pelosi orchestrated the murder of her husband
Bet he had an apple in his mouth whilst his mate was working at the other end 🤣🤣🤣
Nancy Pelosi is so ‘heartbroken and traumatized’ this is how she looks now. The old witch she really is.
Wait til the kinky details come out. Nah, the media will cover it up. As usual.
She probably put a hit piece out on him.
Lovers quarrel.
