Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has decided to take legal action against a man who sexually attacked her on a street in Mexico City on Tuesday. A video that spread quickly online shows the man coming up behind the president, wrapping his arm around her, and kissing her neck. Her assistant, Juan José Ramírez Mendoza, stopped him right away.
The attack happened while Sheinbaum and her team were walking from the National Palace to the Education Ministry because they wanted to skip the heavy traffic, as per The Hill. During her regular morning press conference on Wednesday, Sheinbaum said the man looked drunk and she didn’t even know what was happening until her assistant jumped in to help.
