A US Attorney for New York was allegedly chased by a knife-wielding illegal immigrant with a lengthy criminal record who threatened to slit his throat on the streets of Albany Tuesday night, prosecutors said.

John Sarcone, the Trump-appointed US Attorney for the Northern District of New York, was allegedly chased and threatened outside the Hilton Hotel in Albany by Saul Morales-Garcia — an illegal migrant from El Salvador who was previously deported, WNYT reported, citing Albany County prosecutors.

Morales-Garcia, 40, allegedly aggressively advanced toward Sarcone with his weapon in hand — gesturing that he would slit the attorney’s throat as he lunged at him before chasing the US attorney down the street outside the hotel just before 10 p.m. Tuesday, that report stated citing local police.

Sarcone was uninjured, and nearby Albany County sheriff’s deputies picked up Morales-Garcia just moments after the alleged attack, according to local cops.

The alleged attempted slasher was previously convicted of a felony in El Salvador and has been deported from the United States at least once in the past, WNYT reported, citing investigators.

That would be an instance where you kill the man trying to actively kill you.

Holy cow! I wonder how he even got out of El Salvador. I guess he wasn’t in that escape proof prison.

well. it’s nice to know that with all the look over here, war! war! Iran! Iran! Israel! Israel! there is at least still someone reporting on the enemy attacks right under our noses in America’s biggest cities.

what the hell happened to the ‘big beautiful debt’ bill and spending us into oblivion? what happened to mass deportation? what happened to spending cuts? what happened to tax cuts? why haven’t we dealt with rogue judges? why don’t we have arrests for election fraud? why is Tina Peters still in prison? why don’t we have an audit of Ft Knox? why don’t we have the epstein list? why don’t we have all the Kennedy files?

what the hell. why is everyone all of a sudden looking at iran, israel. i’m a Christian, any reader of God’s word knows the importance of Israel to God. God has Israel. but Israel is going to war again as it has for 3000 years. they have the best military the American tax payer can buy for them. we support and have supported Israel to the hilt. Israel is doin’ fine.

it’s we who are in trouble. we need to get our house in order. we need to fix our elections. we need to fix our rogue justice system. we need to deport 10M aliens. we need to stop the attacks in our streets. we need to get the commies out of our schools. we need to pay attention to what is important. Mr. President. you are burning daylight.

But, but that’s how they deal with problems in El Salvador! Maybe we should increase criminals from El Salvador in the name of diversity….. 🤔🤔🤔

“You mean even US Attorneys in NY can’t carry?”

I’m sure the request is being fast-walked through the DOJ bright and early this morning.

As he’s a federal law enforcement agent the state should have no say in the matter. If he’s authorized as part of his duties state law has to abide by that.

Most likely brought into the NY elite culture that having a firearm is a bad thing.
