Police tell KDKA that a campaign volunteer has now confessed to
making up a story that a mugger attacked her and cut the letter B in
her face after seeing her McCain bumper sticker.
Ashley Todd, 20, of Texas, initially told police that she was
robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield and that the suspect became enraged and
started beating her after seeing her GOP sticker on her car. [...]
This afternoon, a Pittsburgh police commander told KDKA
Investigator Marty Griffin that Todd confessed to making up the story.
The commander added that Todd will face charges; but police have
not commented on what those charges will be.
Authorities are expected to release more details at a news
conference this afternoon.
