Digital Journal:

A young woman campaigning for John McCain was recently robbed by a man who was then infuriated when he saw her McCain bumper sticker. He then carved the letter “b” (for Barack) into her face.

After telling his supporters last month to get in their neighbour’s faces, it appears that one of Barack Obama’s supporters may have taken his words, well way too far.

According to one report, the 20-year-old woman is a “campaign staffer for John McCain” from Texas. The young woman, was taking money out of an ATM in Bloomfield, a suburb of Pittsburgh, was approached and robbed by a man wielding a knife. After taking $60 from the terrified woman, it is being reported that the robber became enraged when he saw a McCain bumper sticker on the woman’s car and he allegedly attacked the woman by kicking and punching her. He then took his knife and carved the letter “B” into her face.

The robber is described as a dark-skinned black man, 6 feet 4 inches tall, 200 pounds with a medium build, short black hair and brown eyes. The man was wearing dark colored jeans, a black undershirt and black shoes.

The assault happened outside of the view of the bank’s video camera system.

A knife-wielding man robbed a McCain-Palin campaign volunteer and etched a “B” into her face after he saw a McCain bumper sticker on the woman’s car, Pittsburgh police said.

Ashley Todd, 20, of College Station, Texas, was using an ATM at Liberty Avenue and Pearl Street in Bloomfield just before 9 p.m. Wednesday when a man approached her, put a knife to her throat and demanded $60, police said.

Todd handed the man $60 she had in her pocket and stepped away from him, investigators said. The man then noticed the bumper sticker on the woman’s car, which was parked in front of the ATM. The man became very angry, made comments to Todd about John McCain and punched her in the back of the head, knocking her to the ground, police said.

“He continued to kick and punch her repeatedly and said he would teach her a lesson for supporting John McCain,” said police Chief Nate Harper.

The man then carved the “B” into Todd’s right cheek.

Is that a hoax?
