The head of South Korea’s Democratic Party was brutally stabbed by a knife-wielding suspect during a press conference … and the horrifying attack was all caught on video.
Lee Jae-myung was at a public event surrounded by a gaggle of reporters and TV cameras in South Korea’s port city of Busan Tuesday when the assailant approached him for an autograph before suddenly plunging a knife into his neck.
Check out the crazy clip … Lee grimaces in pain as he collapses to the ground after the stabbing. The crowd jumps on the suspect, who’s wearing a blue, paper crown around his head, tackling him to the pavement.
Other footage shows Lee lying face up on the ground with his eyes closed as someone applies a handkerchief to his neck wound to stop the bleeding.
Lee was rushed to a hospital in Busan, where he was given emergency care for his neck injury, which was not life-threatening, according to Reuters. He was then airlifted to a medical facility in the capital city of Seoul for additional treatment.
South Korean Democratic Party spokesman Kwon Chil-seung held a press conference, saying that medical staff believes Lee suffered damage to his jugular vein.
Meanwhile, police quickly responded to the crime scene and arrested the 66-year-old man, who did not provide a motive for the attack. The suspect reportedly faces an attempted murder charge.
