Yonkers Campaign Forum Erupts After Bathroom Fight Between Westchester Candidate And Opponent's Mom: Reports

Video showed Skipper being escorted from the building after a bathroom confrontation that sent another person to the hospital, officials said.

  • On Wednesday night, police detained Democratic legislative candidate Kisha Skipper after a restroom altercation at the Beczak Environmental Center in Yonkers following a political forum.
  • The confrontation reportedly stemmed from a dispute over alleged questionable campaign donations to Skipper, prompting Donna Nolan, mother of Republican County Legislator James Nolan, to follow her into the restroom.
  • James Nolan alleged on Instagram that Skipper physically attacked his mother, while Skipper claimed in comments to Yonkers News that Donna Nolan "assaulted" her.
  • Following the altercation, Donna Nolan was transported to a hospital by ambulance, while Skipper later denied being arrested in a Facebook post, describing reports as "misinformation."
  • James Nolan cited the incident as evidence that Skipper is "not fit to serve public office," while police have not yet released an official statement regarding the investigation.
