Ashley Todd John McCain!
VIDEO! Watch video about Ashley Todd’s attack. Ashley Todd was the John McCain volunteer. Ashley Todd in Pittsburgh was attacked, mutilated, and a B etched into her face by a burglar.
Ashley Todd, 20, is from College Station, Texas.
LALATE first broke online the reports of Ashley Todd’s attack. Now more details coming in.
John McCain has called and spoken both with Todd and her family. News of Todd’s attack hit several hours ago here on LALATE, despite her identity first withheld by police. Her attack was last night near an ATM machine.
The attack was at an ATM in Bloomfield, near Pittsburgh. Ashley had already withdrawn the $60 when a robber demanded her money then. After she gave it to him, and the two parted ways, he spotted reportedly multiple McCain stickers on Todd’s car.
The attacker then came back to Todd, punched her to the back of the head, then to the ground, and carved a B into her face.
Complete coverage of this continues here throughout the evening:

No way. The location she claims this happened is a lively area with many restaurants and bars. At 9PM - someone would have seen this. Pearl and Liberty in Bloomfield is not “the wrong side of town” - it’s a charming old “Italian” neighborhood, which has experienced some pretty significant rejuvenation in the last 10 years. 2 of our favorite dining establishments are in that very block. The one - a steakhouse - Tessaro’s is a Pittsburgh legend (with by the way, a mostly “white” clientele - I only add that after reading the description of her supposed attacker to note that it is an area much inhabited by all) and the streets around this area are generally busy until later at night. No way this happened at this location without anyone seeing it.
