Sheron was attacked on May 20 by 32-year-old Thomas Butler in what authorities described an an “unprovoked attack.” Sheron’s wife, however, believes that he was targeted for his ardent support for President Donald Trump, according to the New York Post.
Sheron’s home was commonly referred to as the “Trump House” by locals who observed the numerous Trump-related decorations and his other patriotic displays.
Authorities have obtained footage of the attack on Sheron, and have described Butler confronting Sheron outside of his home before throwing a sucker-punch causing Sheron to collapse. Butler then pummeled Sheron’s skull as he laid on the ground. At that point, a bystander attempted to intervene before Butler fled on foot. Authorities would manage to find and detain Butler following the attack.
Butler is currently being held in custody without bail and faces charges of attempted murder, elder abuse, criminal threats and battery. Those charges will likely be increased following Sheron’s death.
