Did I just hear this correctly re. Pelosi?

[RandySF]

On MSNBC: Pelosi's attacker was able to strike him in the head with the hammer AFTER the police arrived?

[Lars39]

1. Yes! That's what I heard also

[Sympthsical]

2. It sounded like they were struggling over the hammer

I listened to the press conference, and it sounds like as the police arrived, the two men were fighting over the hammer. And as police approached, the attacker got control of it and got a blow in.

That's how I interpreted what they were saying.

[onecaliberal]

5. Yes.

[Deuxcents]

6. Yep.. they were in a struggle when police arrived

But why was he not disarmed?

[Lovie777]

7. I believe so.................

[Bernardo de La Paz]

8. I think they had just arrived; no time. Maybe was automatic 911 call. . . . nt

[lunatica]

12. Paul Pelosi called 911 when the intruder was distracted

It’s an affluent neighborhood so I imagine there’s always a patrol car nearby. Especially with a history of demonstrators in front of the Pelosi house.

11. They obviously need better security.
