Watch: Louisville Slugger Sucker-Punches Mayor
2022-06-21
[ZeroHedge] One moment, Louisville mayor Greg Fischer is hugging someone. In the next, he's on the receiving end of a vicious sucker punch that sends him straight to the ground.

That's the scene captured on surveillance video Saturday night, as Fischer mingled at "Fourth Street Live," an entertainment and retail complex in downtown Louisville.

In the video, the attacker casually strolls up to Fischer before unleashing a forceful punch on the unsuspecting third-term Democrat.

As is increasingly the case with urban violence, the perpetrator hasn't been identified and has thus far escaped any consequences. Video shows a man briefly confronted the attacker, but nobody made any effort to detain him—despite the fact that the mayor was accompanied by a protective detail.

#4  Double whammy on the lack of any noticeable media coverage: Third-term Democrat and a black perp. I guess I missed the part about the MAGA cap. /sarc
