chautauqua, n.y. (ap) — Salman Rushdie, the author whose writing led to death threats from iran in the 1980s, was attacked friday as he was about to give a lecture in western new york.

an associated press reporter witnessed a man storm the stage at the chautauqua institution and begin punching or stabbing Rushdie as he was being introduced. the 75-year-old author was pushed or fell to the floor, and the man was restrained.

Rushdie was quickly surrounded by a small group of people who held up his legs, presumably to send more blood to his chest.

his condition was not immediately known.

GRA: Probably an illegal (moslem) committed the attack.

Clear the air passage, stop the bleeding, protect the wound, treat for shock.
