PITTSBURGH (KDKA) ― Police tell KDKA that a campaign volunteer has now confessed to making up a story that a mugger attacked her and cut the letter B in her face after seeing her McCain bumper sticker.

Ashley Todd, 20, of Texas, initially told police that she was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield and that the suspect became enraged and started beating her after seeing her GOP sticker on her car.

Police investigating the alleged attack, however, began to notice some inconsistencies in her story and administered a polygraph test.

Authorities, however, declined to release the results of that test.

Investigators did say that they received photos from the ATM machine and "the photographs were verified as not being the victim making the transaction."

This afternoon, a Pittsburgh police commander told KDKA Investigator Marty Griffin that Todd confessed to making up the story.

The commander added that Todd will face charges; but police have not commented on what those charges will be.

Authorities are expected to release more details at a news conference this afternoon.

According to police, investigators working on the interview process detected several inconsistencies in Todd's story that differed from statements made in the original police report.

Pittsburgh Police Public Information Officer Diane Richard released a statement earlier today, saying: "Because of the inconsistencies in her statements, Ms. Todd was asked to submit to a polygraph examination which she agreed to do."

No photos of Todd are being released by Pittsburgh Police at this time.

Just proving that there are wack jobs on both sides of the political curtains.

Or, should I say at both ends of the political spectrum?

This should end any doubt in Right Wingers' minds that race certainly is a factor with this election.

I doubted the credibility of this from the photo.

1. Who would cut such a perfect "B" with a squirming victim?

2. Seems that eye was black awful fast.

Hope this girl gets the Punishment the Duke stripper never got.

(actually, the stripper has a book out this week, not sure if Jessie Jackson did the forward or made good on his pledge to pay for her collage)

with more than 95% of blacks voting the same way... who doubted race was a factor?

Even with Obama was against Hillary, the numbers were similar.

Let's not carried away with over-generalizations. The girl is a nut who loves attention. She acted on her own unless there's evidence to prove that she was directed to this from someone else.

Identity politics certainly are playing into this election...and McCain's choice for VP is part of that. What I'm talking about is the denial by many Right Wingers that racial prejudice in the form of 'fear of the black man' is having its effect on voters. There's an awful lot of unfounded fear of Obama as President that even McCain had to criticize against.
