The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has obtained a copy of the official police report from Cynthia McKinney's bout with Paul McKenna, a Capitol Hill police officer.
The official police report on Rep. Cynthia McKinney's clash with a Capitol Hill police officer three weeks ago says the DeKalb County congresswoman struck the officer "in his chest with [a] closed fist."
The "event report" — obtained Tuesday by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution — describes the altercation as an assault on a police officer.
The officer involved in the incident, identified as Paul McKenna, filed the report with his supervisors immediately after the incident occurred at 8:55 a.m. March 29.
...McKinney's office declined to comment on the report Tuesday, saying it involved a pending legal matter.
The report does not identify McKinney by name. It only describes her and identifies her as a suspect.
That's routine procedure for Capitol Hill police, who list the identities of lawmakers and congressional aides involved in incidents only on confidential supplemental reports, police familiar with the process said.
McKinney's age — 51 — is also reported incorrectly. The report lists her as 40. Congressional and police authorities, however, confirmed the report's authenticity.
It sounds like McKinney's strategy to weaken McKenna was to first work the body, before going for the KO.
I bet Don King is trying to secure the rights to show the surveillance tape of the incident on pay-per-view.
I'd pay to see that.
