Rudy Giuliani was attacked by a worker at a ShopRite on Staten Island on Sunday while campaigning for his son, leaving the 78-year-old former New York City mayor shaken, witnesses and law-enforcement sources said. Giuliani told The Post he almost went down when he was hit but regained his composure even as his attacker kept cursing at him. My dad is tough as nails, Giulianis gubernatorial-candidate son, Andrew Giuliani, said. Witness Rita Rugova-Johnson told The Post she was stunned during the attack at the supermarket on Veterans Road. I was shoulder-to-shoulder with Rudy inside ShopRite, Rugova-Johnson said. Were talking, and all of a sudden an employee came out of nowhere and open-handedly slapped him in the back and said, Hey, whats up scumbag? [The attacker] was on duty at the time, the witness said. The cops arrested him. Sources said police took the assailant into custody at the store. The suspect, a 39-year-old from Staten Island, will be charged with second-degree assault involving a person over age 65, law-enforcement sources said. The man has no prior arrests, sources said.

Hes doing fine, Andrew later said of his father. But its a sad day when New Yorkers greatest crime fighter, Americas Mayor, is attacked. I blame the left-wing for encouraging violence. This is crazy. Rudy Giuliani, also a lawyer for former President Donald Trump, was campaigning for his son, including by posing for photos, at the time of the attack, said his partner, Dr. Maria Ryan, to The Post.
