Viral footage shows a Hawaii Democratic congressional candidate being knocked unconscious after shouting and arguing with other beachgoers. Kirill Basin allegedly made threats towards several people on the beach, threatening to stab and even shoot them before a bystander intervened. Mr Basin now faces two terrorist threatening charges.
The video shows the politician having a very public meltdown. Basin is seen approaching another group on the beach and can be heard telling one person from the group, “Put your bag away, bro. Put your bag away.” A woman is then seen waving him away with her hand before Basin yells, “I told him if he wants to go to the hospital, come here.”
