Rudy Giuliani Smacked on Back While Campaigning on Staten Island

A grocery store worker on Staten Island was arrested on Sunday after smacking Rudolph W. Giuliani on the back while the former mayor campaigned on behalf of his son, a Republican candidate for governor, according to the police and Mr. Giuliani. In a brief interview, Mr. Giuliani said he was walking through a ShopRite grocery store in the Charleston neighborhood with supporters when the employee disparaged him and slapped his back, then made an apparent reference to abortion. “The one thing he said that was political was ‘you’re going to kill women, you’re going to kill women,’” said Mr. Giuliani, who said he understood the remark to be about the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade on Friday. The initial account shared by police did not mention abortion, but said that an unnamed 39-year-old man had slapped Mr. Giuliani in the mid-back while saying, “What’s up, scumbag?” The man was taken into custody. Police were still investigating and it was not immediately clear what, if any, charges the man could face. Surveillance video of the incident later published by The New York Post shows a person who appears to be a ShopRite employee approach Mr. Giuliani, briefly take an open hand to his back, stop to address the former mayor and move on. Mr. Giuliani looks startled but does not appear physically shaken. The grocery store chain said in a statement that it was aware of the incident and that the company had “zero tolerance for aggression toward anyone.” Mr. Giuliani, a Republican who recently served as Donald J. Trump’s personal lawyer, has had a long and conflicted relationship with abortion rights — first opposing them, then supporting them, then reversing himself again.
