A pro-life journalist was brutally punched in the face in New York City.
Savannah Craven is with Live Action and she was conducting man-on-the-street interviews when a woman became enraged and delivered a blow to Craven’s face.
She was knocked to the ground but the attacker continued the assault until Craven’s husband intervened. Craven was left bloodied and bruised.
Her husband told Live Action, “[We] were out on the street in Harlem doing some street interviews. My wife … was assaulted by a pro-abortion woman we were interviewing… The woman became aggressive and violent upon learning Savannah’s pro-life stance. I intervened to protect my wife and we immediately called 911. The police arrived, and we provided them with the assailant’s photo and description. We hope justice will be served soon.”
Police are investigating but so far the attacker has not been arrested. Watch the video below:
Lila Rose is the founder of Live Action and she condemned the attack and said pro-lifers will not be intimidated. And no one should ever face physical assault for expressing their views in public.
We are deeply grateful for the work Savannah has done to protect preborn children and help end abortion in our nation. Her bravery in the face of violence is heroic. We are grateful she is safe and receiving support. No one should ever face physical assault for expressing their views in public.
We will not be intimidated. Live Action will continue our goal to defund Planned Parenthood—which kills over 1,000 children every day while receiving more than $700 million in taxpayer funding. We remain committed to our mission to completely abolish abortion and ensure every child is protected under the law.
It’s sad to say but violence against pro-lifers and pro-life organizations has been on the uptick since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
President Biden all but declared war on pro-lifers. During his term in office the FBI staged raids on the homes of pro-life families and sent elderly pro-lifers to jail.
Be careful out there, friends.
