Police reportedly detained New York Democratic candidate Kisha Skipper after she was allegedly involved in a restroom altercation with her Republican opponent’s mother. Skipper, who is running to unseat GOP Westchester County Legislator James Nolan, was said to have been handcuffed and detained following the incident involving Nolan’s mother, Donna Nolan.
The incident is said to have occurred during a break at the event at the Beczak Environmental Center, where Skipper allegedly got into a dispute with a former campaign staffer, according to Yonkers police. Nolan reportedly tried to intervene and police say she “sustained an abrasion to her lip.” Local outlet Black Westchester indicated that Skipper was asked about questionable campaign donations during the debate but reportedly left for a bathroom break without answering, shortly before the alleged altercation.
