Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday that Rudy Giuliani should be investigated for filing a fake police report on an alleged attack on a Staten Island supermarket that prompted the former mayor to tell Adams to “fuck himself.”
The mayor’s crushing began when Adams blamed Giuliani for his “creativity and sensation”, claiming he could have been “killed” by the pat on the back he received while campaigning Sunday for his son Andrew, a candidate for governor of the Republican Party.
“I watched the video and someone needs to remind former mayor Giuliani that falsely reporting a crime is a crime,” Adams said during an unrelated press conference in East Harlem.
“And from what he said he was hit in the head, I felt like a bullet – from what he said, there was a lot of creativity, and I think the district attorney has the wrong person he’s investigating,” Adams said.

“When you watch the video, the man actually walked over and patted him on the back,” the mayor added. “I don’t know if he said congratulations, I don’t know what he said. But it was clear he had not been hit in the head. It was clear he didn’t feel like a bullet. It was clear he would not fall to the ground.
Giuliani, 78, was unhappy with Adams’ assessment.
“Tell Adams to fuck himself,” he told The Post on Tuesday. – What af – royal scumbag.
It looks like a video grabbing showing Giuliani being hit on the back in ShopRite.
“Eric Adams doesn’t know what the hell he’s talking about,” he said. “He does not know what he is talking about. I did not file the complaint. His police department gave the signal. The police department conducted an investigation. Police questioned witnesses.
“Let him talk to his police department,” Giuliani added. “He probably can’t do that. The cops probably won’t talk to him. They don’t believe him. He must have been a bad cop.
Giuliani was talking to locals after returning from the men’s restroom at Staten Island ShopRite on Sunday when store employee Daniel Gill came up behind him and punched him in the back, the video of the incident shows.

Gil, 39, was initially charged with second-degree assault in the incident, although charges were reduced to third-degree harassment and harassment.
In an interview with The Post after the incident, Giuliani said he could have been killed by a slap on the back.
“It was a very, very heavy blow. He could have easily hit me, knocked me to the ground and killed me, “he said. “He is lucky he didn’t knock me down. Falling is extremely dangerous for an adult. ”
He later called the slap “a very, very heavy shot”, adding that “he is lucky he didn’t knock me down” because “falling is extremely dangerous for an adult”.
