Two Madison women have been arrested for beating a state Senator last month.
Twenty-six-year-old Samantha Hamer and 33-year-old Kerida O’Reilly turned themselves in to Madison Police, in connection with the June 24th assault on Milwaukee Democrat Tim Carpenter during a violent protest in Madison.
Both women were tentatively charged with substantial battery and robbery with use of force as party to a crime, according to a police incident report updated Monday afternoon.
The beating left Carpenter with a concussion and a broken nose for which he required surgery.
