Acton Campaign Statement on Incident at Canfield Fair

CANFIELD, OH– The Ohioans for Amy Acton campaign released the following statement following an incident at the Canfield Fair:

“While attending the Canfield Fair, an armed individual lunged at Dr. Acton, injuring multiple people. Dr. Acton and Eric are grateful for the swift and decisive action of law enforcement and are praying for the recovery of those injured. This kind of violence has no place in Ohio. Dr. Acton will always stand up to the chaos, hate and vitriol that pits us against one another,” said Addie Bullock, Communications Director for the Acton campaign.
