North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson (R) was burned in an “incident” at a campaign stop Friday night and is in the hospital in “good spirits”, according to a campaign spokesman.
Robinson, the Republican nominee for governor, was reportedly campaigning in Mt. Airy when the burn “incident” occurred. There are no reports as to whether Robinson’s injuries are from an accident or an attack of some sort. Robinson’s campaign was thrown into chaos last week following a CNN report that accused him of having a past profile on a porn website where he allegedly made shocking comments.
