Congressman’s staffers hospitalised after baseball bat attack at Virginia office
Police arrested a man who entered the district office of Democratic Representative Gerry Connolly of Virginia after he attacked two members of his staff with a baseball bat.
Mr Connolly released a statement on Monday saying that the person who committed the attack is now in the custody of the City of Fairfax Police Department after causing non-life-threatening injuries to the staffers.
