Hello, America. Mark Lovin here. Our number 877-38138-1187-381381.

One leading on every newscast as best as I can tell is this attack on Paul Pelosi and his home in San Francisco.

I want to comment on this. Of course, it's a horrific thing. And last reports are that he was hurt badly that his head was fractured his gall and that they expect him to make a full recovery.

Now, here is William Scott, the police chief at San Francisco, Cut One Go. At approximately 227 this morning, San Francisco police officers were dispatched to the residents of Speaker Nancy Pelosi regarding an A priority well-being check.

When the officers arrive on scene, they encountered an adult male and Mr. Pelosi's husband, Paul. Our officers observed Mr. Pelosi and his suspect both holding a hammer.

The suspect pulled the hammer away from Mr. Pelosi and violently assaulted him with it. Our officers immediately tackled the suspect, disarmed him, took him into custody, requested emergency backup and rendered medical aid.

The suspect has been identified as 42 year old David DePappy. Mr. Pelosi and Mr. DePappy were transported to a local hospital for treatment.

This is an active investigation currently being led by the San Francisco police department, special investigations division.

We are working closely with our partners from the FBI, the US Attorney's Office, the US Capitol Police and our district attorney here in San Francisco County, D.A. Brook Jenkins and her team.

The motive for this attack is still being determined. Mr. DePappy will be booked at the San Francisco County jail on the following charges.

Attempted homicide, assault with a daily weapon, elder abuse, burglary and several other additional felonies.

And he should be in the other throw the book at him. The information we're getting here right now this evening is that this guy is a nut job.

And he's known to the neighborhood to be a nut job and he's from the neighborhood.

He apparently went into the Pelosi house, broke a window, went in, wasn't exactly doing it on the sly.

And that's kind of a nut. And when the police got there, you heard he hit Mr. Pelosi with a hammer, apparently multiple times.

Now this is all over the news. It's a front page story. The back of everybody's mind was, I'm just being honest, was it politically motivated? Doesn't appear to be.

All that said, do you folks remember I think it was last night or maybe the night before Mr. producer you would know when I played a clip of the view.
