U.S. Rep. Angie Craig (D-Minn.) was attacked in an elevator inside her Washington, D.C., apartment building, according to a statement from her office on Thursday.

“Rep. Craig defended herself from the attacker and suffered bruising, but is otherwise physically okay,” Nick Coe, her chief of staff, said in a statement. There is “no evidence” the incident was politically motivated, he said, adding that the assailant fled the scene.
