A 23-year-old pro-life activist was left bloodied and needing stitches after being punched in the face during a street interview in New York City.
A viral video showed Savannah Craven Antao , a reporter with the advocacy group Live Action, conducting street interviews in Harlem on Thursday when a heated exchange with an unidentified woman suddenly turned violent. The pair were discussing planned parenthood and abortion when tensions escalated due to a contrast in opinions.
“You don’t understand the magnitude of having a child,” the woman is heard saying in the footage, before Craven Antao responddc, “I’m not the one who admitted they would be OK with killing babies in foster care and killing children that have been abused.”
Moments later, the woman suddenly launched a series of punches to Craven Antao’s face before storming off, shouting “Suck my d–k” as she walked away.
The attack left the journalist with a deep cut on her forehead and brow, causing blood to stream down her face and chest. She later revealed on social media that she had been treated at a local hospital and received stitches for the injury.
“I was just assaulted in Harlem interviewing people on the street. In cop car. Heading to hospital. Updates soon. ABORTION SUPPORTERS ARE VIOLENT!” she posted on her social media, alongside footage of herself in the back of a police car.
Her husband, Henry Antao, condemned the attack in a statement shared with Live Action.
“My wife… was assaulted by a pro-abortion woman we were interviewing. The woman became aggressive and violent upon learning Savannah’s pro-life stance,” he said. He added that he contacted 911 and shared both photos and a description of the suspect with the NYPD.
Earlier in the interview, the same woman had reportedly shouted “f–k the police” and argued that ending a pregnancy is preferable to sending a child into foster care.
Craven Antao later reassured her followers, writing, “Bruised, but blessed. I AM OKAY! I love you all thank you for the support.”
As of now, the NYPD has not issued an update on the investigation.
