参议员苏珊·柯林斯(共和党-缅因州)位于缅因州比德福德的办公室周一晚间遭到破坏,这是一个月内第二次发生此类事件,柯林斯的幕僚长向福克斯新闻透露。
The Biddeford, Maine, office of Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, was vandalized Monday night for the second time in a month, Collins' chief of staff told Fox News.
此前破坏者曾在9月向大楼大门喷漆,周一破坏者在该地点前倾倒了一桶红色油漆,并在大楼前的人行道上用红漆写下——“她手上沾满鲜血”。
After vandals previously spray-painted the building's door in September, saboteurs on Monday dumped a bucket of red paint in front of the location while writing in crimson — "BLOOD on her HANDS" — on the sidewalk in front of the building.
“这是一系列事件中的又一起,也是针对我们比德福德办公室的第二次恐吓企图。这些手段令人不安,但无效。我们的员工毫不气馁,继续工作,”柯林斯的幕僚长凯蒂·布朗告诉福克斯新闻记者亚历克西斯·麦克亚当斯。
"This is another incident in a series and the second attempt at our Biddeford office to intimidate the Senator and her staff. These tactics are disturbing, but not effective. Our staff is undeterred and on the job," Collins' chief of staff Katie Brown told Fox News' Alexis McAdams.
比德福德办公室靠近7月发生的一起美国移民与海关执法局(ICE)执法人员涉枪事件现场,当时一名执法人员开枪打死26岁哥伦比亚裔男子约翰·塞巴斯蒂安·格雷罗。
The Biddeford office is near the scene of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer-involved shooting in which a law enforcement officer shot and killed 26-year-old Colombian national Johan Sebastián Guerrero in July.
枪击案发生数日后,抗议者冲入比德福德办公室大门,高呼“投票把她赶下台”。9月,办公室大门上被红漆喷涂“特朗普的妓女”辱骂字样。
Days after the shooting, protesters barged into the Biddeford office's front door, chanting "vote her out." In September, the "Trump whore" epithet was spray-painted in red on her office door.
竞选柯林斯美国参议员席位的挑战者、前民主党州参议员特洛伊·杰克逊在向福克斯新闻数字版发表的声明中谴责了9月的破坏行为。
Collins' challenger for her U.S. Senate seat, former Democratic state Senator Troy Jackson, condemned the September vandalism in a statement to Fox News Digital.
“参议员柯林斯及其员工应该能够在无人破坏其办公室的情况下履职,我谴责实施此事者,”杰克逊说。根据柯林斯竞选团队消息,比德福德警方正在调查该事件。
"Senator Collins and her staff should be able to do their jobs without anyone defacing their office, and I condemn whoever did this," Jackson said. Biddeford police are investigating the incident, according to Collins' campaign.

参议员柯林斯和特洛伊·杰克逊的竞选团队均未立即回应福克斯新闻数字版的进一步置评请求。
Sen. Collins' and Troy Jackson's campaigns did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for further comment.
