Atlantic City Councilman Morshed To Say He “Was Targeted”
As was previously reported here by Chris Coleman, Atlantic City 4th Ward Councilman MD Morshed was attacked (last Thursday) during a drug deal near a mosque … after telling them that they can’t do a drug deal here.
We have learned and confirmed that Morshed will be holding a press conference from his hospital room at AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center-City Division within the next 1/2 hour (early 5:00 p.m hour).
