The man who is alleged to have attacked Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, with a hammer in the couple’s San Francisco home had with him a bag that contained multiple zip ties, among other things, according to two sources who have been briefed on the incident. In addition to the zip ties, the suspect also had duct tape on him, according to a law enforcement source. David DePape, 42, faces charges of attempted homicide, assault with a deadly weapon, elder abuse, burglary and other felonies in relation to the Friday morning attack, said San Francisco Police Chief William Scott. The hammer that was used to assault Paul Pelosi was brought by DePape, according to a law enforcement source and a senior congressional aide briefed on the assault. Neither source knew of any other weapons found when DePape was detained. DePape went upstairs into the bedroom where Paul Pelosi was sleeping, according to San Francisco District Attorney’s Office Communications Director Randy Quezada. The two did not know each other prior to the attack, Quezada said. NBC News was first to report that DePape went to the bedroom. CNN previously reported that DePape confronted Pelosi and asked where his wife was, shouting, “Where is Nancy?” Video Ad Feedback ‘Where is Nancy?’: Assailant shouted before attacking Pelosi’s husband, source says 01:29 – Source: CNN The new details add further understanding of what transpired during Friday’s attack, in which DePape also tried to tie up Paul Pelosi, two sources told CNN on Friday.

(…) Pelosi was taken to a hospital after the attack and underwent a “successful surgery to repair a skull fracture and serious injuries to his right arm and hands,” Drew Hammill, a spokesman for Nancy Pelosi, said in a statement early Friday evening
