“Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN) called for a series of reforms after she was violently attacked in her own building in Washington D.C.

Craig was assaulted last week in her apartment building. According to police, a man who was acting erratic followed her into her building’s elevator after she’d gotten her morning coffee. Once alone with her, he punched her and demanded to get into her apartment. Craig threw her coffee at the assailant and escaped when the elevator doors opened.

Craig joined CBS reporter Scott MacFarlane on Tuesday to discuss the incident and to call out soft on crime policies that are keeping repeat offenders on the street. The man who attacked the congresswoman was arrested by police and as CBS noted in their report, he has an extensive criminal history. He even attacked multiple officers when he was arrested for assaulting Craig, biting a detective at one point.”
