Liberal activist stomped outside Rand Paul-Jack Conway debate
The incident happened Monday night in Lexington right before a debate between Rand Paul and Democratic opponent Jack Conway.
Lauren Valle of liberal group MoveOn.org, said she represented "Republicorp," a creation of the activist group Moveon.org, and was trying to give Paul a faux "employee of the month" award when his supporters took her to the ground.
A statement issued by Rand Paul's camp later condemned the attack on Valle and said "Violence of any kind has no place in our civil discourse and we urge supporters on all sides to be civil to one another as tensions rise heading toward this very important election."
No arrests were made, but Lexington police say they are investigating the incident.
