Salman Rushdie stabbed in neck onstage at New York lecture
Description
August 12, 2022
Acclaimed and polarizing author Salman Rushdie was stabbed in the neck while he was on stage at a convention in western New York. The governor of New York says the 75-year-old is alive and is getting the care he needs — and the suspect is in custody. Rushdie has faced death threats in the past, spent years with a bounty on his head and is hiding from Iran because of his writing. Eric Sorensen has more on the attack.
