Black alleged to have exaggerated mugging

A few days after claims that U.S. Rep. Diane Black fudged details about when she first got a handgun carry permit in a campaign ad, questions are being raised about what actually occurred in the mugging that Black describes in the ad.

In the television ad, Black claims three young men "were aggressive, they beat me up, they broke my cheekbone, and they ruptured a disc in my back and there was no one there to help me. They tried to get me in the car but I knew I could not let that happen. When the police arrived, they told me that if I had gotten in the car, I would have never come back."
