Ian Sacs Assaulted?- UPDATED

(Posted 10:56 am)
Clare Moses, Editor of Patch just tweeted this:


Well, all of that incendiary language coming out of the Mason majority, their incivility toward Director Sacs,  and the toxic Mason411 was bound to manifest itself. The open contempt with which they treat the Director, Mayor Zimmer and her entire staff (Mason411 stuck the shiv into Zoning Officer Ann Holtzman this morning)  and her supporters have created a climate of extraordinary hostility.


Who knew it would lead to violence?

(Update: 1130 am)
Patch has an unconfirmed report that Director Sacs had confiscated an employee's keys which caused the assault.  A witness said it happened around 9:25 am this morning.  The assault happened on the steps of City Hall and was broken up by the police.

Neither the police nor Director Sacs were available for comment.

(Update, 11:40 am)
Clare is now tweeting the assailant was a city bus driver.

And Patch has this:
According to multiple sources, the other man (a Fourth Ward resident whose name was not yet confirmed around 11:30 a.m. on Thursday) drives the Hop, the city's bus service.

A Fourth Ward resident.  Does that mean Timmy will give him a "Hero of the Month" award for clocking the vilified Sacs?

STATEMENT FROM MAYOR ZIMMER

According to several eye witness accounts, Director Sacs was attacked today by a City employee inside City Hall.  Witnesses included a Police officer and a retired Police officer.

“While I believe Director Sacs is the victim of workplace violence, I am calling for an independent 3rd party to thoroughly review this matter,” said Mayor Dawn Zimmer.  “Workplace violence is an extremely serious matter and cannot be condoned. My Administration has zero tolerance for such conduct, and I urge the Council to support this internal review and codify the Ethics ordinance which seeks to address this issue.” 

A claim and counterclaim have been filed by the parties, and the case will proceed through a municipal court outside of Hobokenin addition to the 3rd party independent review which will begin as soon as possible. The alleged attacker has been suspended without pay pending further investigation.

  1. H411 is proof that porn leads to prostitution. The good news is, in 47 days Perry's gravy train dries up. Heads up to Mr. Klaussen: Mason is notorious for not paying at the end of a contract - especially when things don't go her way.
