‘Boobytrapped’ political sign slices Michigan township worker’s fingers
Trump signs had razor blades along the bottom
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}An employee of a town in Michigan had to get 13 stitches in his hand after he was cut by a boobytrapped Trump sign that had razorblades along the bottom of it.
The 52-year-old Commerce Township building inspector was removing political campaign signs from the road right of way, as the town has an ordinance that requires signs to be 33 feet from the road, and these signs were within that distance.

When he reached down to grab the sign, several razorblades along the bottom of the sign lacerated three of his fingers. He had to get 13 stitches after the incident.
