Dem Mayor Offers Condolences to Family of Knife Attacker Shot by Police

An off-duty Boston cop fatally shot a lunatic who was trying to stab people at a Chick-fil-A over the weekend, prompting city officials to fall over themselves to offer heartfelt condolences — to the perp’s family.

The officer was in the right place at the right time in Boston’s wealthy Back Bay neighborhood Saturday evening when two people being chased by the knife-wielding man fled into the restaurant fearing for their lives.

The cop identified himself and ordered the suspect to drop his knife. When the armed maniac didn’t comply, the officer shot him. The suspect was rushed to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead, NBC10 Boston reported. There were no additional reported injuries.

At a press conference after the incident, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu — who has been repeatedly mocked for a cavalcade of harebrained “woke” schemes during her brief time in office — somberly expressed sorrow over the demise of the would-be stabber.

“My condolences and all of our thoughts are with the family of the individual whose life has been lost,” Wu told reporters.

Other lefty Beantown officials fell in line to grieve the loss of the attacker, with Suffolk County, Mass., District Attorney Kevin Hayden, whose office is leading the post-shooting investigation, offering “thoughts and prayers” to the unidentified assailant’s family and friends.

Wu, 40, was lambasted over the summer when she proposed a plan that would give illegal migrants and children as young as 11 voting rights in determining how millions of dollars in public funds are doled out in the city, a move ripped by critics as “tone-deaf” and “unserious.”

She also raised eyebrows in December 2023 for hosting a secret “electeds [sic] of color” holiday party — which white officials were expressly barred from attending.

News of the exclusionary gathering came to light when Wu’s director of City Council Relations, Denise DosSantos, spilled the beans by erroneously emailing the invitation to all city council members.

Fifteen minutes later, DosSantos sent an embarrassing follow-up fessing up to the accidental inclusivity.

“I wanted to apologize for my previous email regarding a Holiday Party for tomorrow,” DosSantos wrote. “I did send that to everyone by accident, and I apologize if my email may have offended or came across as so. Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.”

Wu later shared a cheery selfie from the event on social media.

More recently, the mayor has said her city will not cooperate with the Trump administration’s ongoing mass deportation effort, despite the fact that Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agents rounded up four alleged child rapists and a suspected member of the vicious MS-13 gang in Boston just a year ago.
