The Asheville Citizen-Times reports:
A Democrat running against Rep. Madison Cawthorn says the Republican congressman brought a knife to a school board meeting, a criminal misdemeanor under state law.
Cawthorn, who spoke at the Sept. 13 Henderson County Board of Education meeting criticizing a COVID-19 mask mandate, had the knife underneath his wheelchair, according to 11th District candidate Jay Carey. Cawthorn uses the wheelchair following a 2014 car accident.
The Super PAC FireMadison.com posted a picture of the handle next to an image of a knife made by the Mills River company Microtech. The handle looks the same as Microtech’s “SBD” knife.

Photos taken of Madison Cawthorn appear to clearly show a knife concealed in his wheelchair during the Henderson Co school board meeting Monday night. Bringing a knife into a board meeting is a criminal offense under NC law. https://t.co/ExHokNHjVa
