The Metropolitan Police Department says its officers responded to the 1300 block of H Street just before 5:30 p.m. on Saturday night for the report of a stabbing.
The victim, who Senator Paul says works for him, was found suffering from stab wounds in the area. He was taken to the hospital in life-threatening condition.
Glynn Neal, 42, was arrested and charged with assault with intent to kill in connection to the attack.
Federal Bureau of Prisons records show Neal was released from prison on Friday – the day before the stabbing.
He spent nearly 12 Years behind bars for compelling two North Carolina women to engage in prostitution through the use of threats.
