The 107th and 110th mayors of New York City have some feelings about each other, and they’re not mincing words about it either. Mayor Eric Adams on Tuesday suggested Rudy Giuliani may have falsely reported a crime over his alleged assault at a grocery store last weekend, and Giuliani in turn blasted the mayor as an “idiot” who didn’t know…
"When you look at the video … the guy walked by and patted him on the back. I don’t know if he said congratulations … I don’t know what he said to him. It was clear that he was not punched in the head. It was clear that it didn’t feel like a bullet. It was clear that he wasn’t about to fall to the ground. And so it was clear … that he had a lot of creativity and sensationalism that caused this person to be arrested," the mayor said during remarks at an unrelated event.
"I’m having a conversation with the police commissioner about … do we feel that was a falsely reported crime," Adams said, adding"He’s a former mayor.. I think it’s irresponsible for a former mayor.""Mayor Adams is an idiot. 'Cause I didn’t file a report. Imagine that. He wants to prosecute me for filing a false report that I didn’t file. His police department filed the report. They did the investigation. They looked at the tape.
The supermarket employee who slapped Rudy Giuliani on the back is now facing charges. Erica Byfield reports.
