Revolutionary Violence in a Wall Street Gym

Lehman Brothers chief Richard Fuld

was attacked on a Sunday shortly after it was announced that the banking giant was bankrupt.

Following rumours that the incident had occurred, Vicki Ward, a US journalist, said "two very senior sources—one incredibly senior source" had confirmed it to her. "He went to the gym after … Lehman was announced as going under," she told CNBC. "He was on a treadmill with a heart monitor on. Someone was in the corner, pumping iron and he walked over and he knocked him out cold."
