LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) - A Las Vegas Valley man putting up his own campaign signs was cut with a knife after an ambush by a robber.

The ordeal happened Thursday August 29 after 4 p.m., in a neighborhood east of Pecos Rd. and Twain Avenue.

67-year-old Stanley Vaughan, running as the Republican in Assembly District 20, decided to walk solo in triple-digit temperatures, putting up signs for himself and other candidates. He said a robber demanded his wallet, then cut him with a knife.

“I‘m so focused on getting the cable ties through and getting them through the fence, I wasn’t paying attention to pedestrians and stuff coming through here. I had my back turned. I turned around, caught me by surprise-- then he started to lunge at me. I instinctively kicked him and he ran away,” Vaughan said, leaning into his Army training and martial arts skills.

[Think. Again.]

1. A rightwinger probably putting up his signs on properties he didn't get permission to use.

2. which ties in directly with the knife and demands for a wallet -(nt)-

[Think. Again.]

3. Oh, I don't care about a rightwinger getting robbed, goodness knows they harm enough people themselves.

4. didn't say you cared

just pointing out a complete non sequitur

[Think. Again.]

5. I guess there's more than one topic of consideration in any situation.
