As sidewalk counselors "demonstrated" outside of a Duluth abortion mill they were given a frightening reminder of the violent nature of abortion:
Duluth police say a 25-year-old Superior woman is in custody after she allegedly pulled a knife on one of the demonstrators and held it to the woman's throat. While protesters have demonstrated outside the building many times before, the facility says Tuesday's incident is rare and isolated.Just before 8:00, demonstrators say they confronted a woman as she was going into the Building For Women on 1st. Street.
"We asked the women 'please don't take the life of your unborn baby we care about what happens to them,'" said Leah Winandy, a demonstrator outside the building.
The demonstrators say that's when the woman brandished a knife at Winandy.
"She said 'don't do this,don't talk to me, don't come near me' and I just said 'fear god,' and she had the knife to my throat and I was a little nervous," Leah said.
Update: Jill has more.
