The man who attacked Paul Pelosi has been named as David Depape, according to San Francisco police.

The 42-year-old is believed to have entered the Pelosi home through its rear after pictures showed an open window leading into the house.

He is said to have shouted “Where’s Nancy?” after breaking in during the early hours of Friday morning looking for the Democratic Speaker of the House, who was in Washington D.C. at the time.

San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott said at a press conference Friday morning officers were dispatched to the Pelosi residence at 2:27 am regarding a wellbeing check.

He said they encountered the suspect and Paul, who were both holding a hammer.

The suspect then “pulled the hammer away from Paul and violently attacked him with it,” Scott said.

He also said Depape has been booked on charges of Attempted Homicide, Assault with a Deadly Weapon, Elder Abuse, Burglary, and “several other additional felonies”.

Pelosi and Depape were both taken to Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and NBC reported Pelosi was undergoing brain surgery.

Mr. Pelosi is reportedly in stable condition.

From The San Francisco Standard:

The attacker of Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, has been named by sources close to the investigation.

The sources identified the suspect as Berkeley resident David Depape.

San Francisco police said that at approximately 2:27 a.m. on Friday morning, officers responded to the 2600 block of Broadway in the Pacific Heights neighborhood for a reported home break-in. The suspect was taken into custody.

According to the Associated Press, Mr. Pelosi was attacked with a hammer but was taken to a hospital for treatment and is expected to make a full recovery, according to Drew Hammill, spokesperson for Nancy Pelosi.

The motive is under investigation, Hammill said in a statement. Speaker Pelosi was not at home at the time of the incident.
