An art professor at Hunter College in Manhattan has been fired and is being investigated by the New York City Police Department after a shocking video of her holding a machete to a reporter’s neck and allegedly threatening to chop him up went viral.
“Hunter College strongly condemns the unacceptable actions of Shellyne Rodriguez and has taken immediate action,” school spokesman Vince Dimiceli told the New York Post on Tuesday.
“Rodriguez has been relieved of her duties at Hunter College effective immediately, and will not be returning to teach at the school,” Dimiceli said.
The incident unfolded Tuesday when Post reporter Reuven Fenton knocked on Rodriguez’s door to inquire about a video from earlier this month showing her harassing pro-life students at Hunter College and vandalizing their display table.
“Get the f*** away from my door, or I’m gonna chop you up with this machete!” she yelled from behind her closed door, according to the Post.
After opening the door, the unhinged leftist is seen on video holding a machete to the reporter’s throat while warning, “Get the f*** away from my door!”
