The U.S. ambassador to South Korea was slashed in the face by an unidentified assailant at a public forum in the capital early on Thursday, police and a witness said.

Ambassador Mark Lippert was attending a breakfast forum in central Seoul when a man attacked him, slashing him in the face, a witness at the event told Reuters.

Lippert, 42, was bleeding from a facial wound but was walking after the attack as he was taken to the hospital, the witness and news reports said.

A police officer said the suspected attacker was being investigated and could not immediately comment further.

US Ambassador Mark Lippert Attacked in South Korea
Mar 4, 2015, 6:21 PM ET

The U.S Ambassador to South Korea was attacked in the country's capital today while giving a speech, officials say.

Photos from South Korea's official news agency show Ambassador Mark Lippert with blood on his hand and holding his face. He was attacked by what the Yonhap news agency described was "an armed man" who shouted, "No to war training!" before attacking him.

He was assaulted Thursday morning local and is being treated at a local hospital with non life-threatening injuries, according to the State Department.

Lippert previously held positions at the Department of Defense from May 2012 until September 2014, according to the embassy website.

The inherent logic of the left: "No to war training" before a slashing attack.

Gee being a Obama US ambassador is rough. At least he was killed and paraded thru the streets.
