A New Jersey man with sympathies toward the Iranian government was arrested and accused of stabbing famed novelist Salman Rushdie on Friday, according to law enforcement sources briefed on the investigation.

Hadi Matar, 24, was arrested after he stormed the stage at the Chautauqua Institution in Western New York and allegedly stabbed the author in the neck.

Sources told The Post that an initial investigation suggests Hadi is sympathetic to the Iranian regime and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard.

Wow they put the fatwa on Rushdi back in 1989, 33 years ago.

Nothing said about Rushdie's condition. That's some reporting there. I hope he's alright.

The NYSP briefing I saw said he was still in surgery. Probably not good.

Ilhan Omar in drag. Does anyone here feel sorry for what happened to Rushdie? I’d deport the stabber as long as he doesn’t come back. Let the Shiites worship him.

Isn't there an old Streisand song about this?

Moslens, Moslems who kill Moslems, are the Moslemest people in the world
Moslems, stabbing other Moslems,...

I feel very upset by what happened to Rushdie. He told the truth and the crazies put a death sentence on him

Salman Rushdie is currently 75 years old.
But no age is a 'good' age to get stabbed.
Could tend to endanger one's health a bit at any age.

The reward for killing Rushdie is currently just over $3 million. Iran added to award not too long ago.

Let me guess. He was known to the FBI, Homeland Security and law enforcement.

There’s a problem with Islamic radicalization this man was born 4 years after the initial fatwah on Rushdie. He’s responsible for his actions, but who radicalized him to think this way. And how many others are out there?

If Rushdi dies the Iranians will pay him millions according to the original fatwa
