ESSENELLE HOSPITALIZED FROM GANG ATTACK-CBS NEWS
According to boyfriend Julian Casablancas of The Strokes, Christina Essenelle was attacked by a street gang in the narrows of Manhattan. Casablancas states that she was stabbed twice in the chest, one puncturing her lung the other just missing her liver, another in her upper arm, one in her back just missing her spine, and the last one was in her leg and when she was found the knife was still inside her. However, even though Essenelle's physique is very small she packs quite the punch, before being stabbed she men surrounded her with and pulled out their knives, she tazed one and punched another in the face and knocked him unconscious. Although her bravery saved her of two more men attacking her she did anger the men even more and received many bruises in her ribs. She received surgery for internal bleeding and two hours later her heart stopped, but thanks to the hands at NYPH she was saved from death. From everyone here at CBS we're wishing her a speedy recovery and we hope to see her on Saturday Night Live this weekend.
CHRISTINA ESSENELLE RUSHED TO HOSPITAL FROM KNIFE FIGHT-NBC NEWS
By this point the full story is on her blog, but Christina had quite the night last night. NBC's own Christina Essenelle was walking down to her friend Albert Hammond Jr. of The Strokes and was attacked by 5 men with knives. She was able to knock two out, one with a tazer the other from her fists but she eventually was stabbed 5 times and broke three of her fingers. She was immediately hospitalized in Manhattan's own NYPH and actually bled out in her room, but was thankfully brought back to life by the steady hands at NYPH. Hopefully she'll be ready and able to be in this week's episode of SNL but she did have a traumatizing experience. From all us at NBC, come back home Christina, you bring this network smiles with your personality. This is Brian Williams of NBC Nightly News, get better Christina and goodnight everyone.
