Mike Lonergan, a campaign spokesperson, said in a statement late Friday night that the 56-year-old Robinson suffered second-degree burns during an “incident at a campaign appearance at the Mayberry Truck Show in Mt. Airy,” a city located near the border of North Carolina and Virginia.
Mt. Airy is Andy Griffith’s home town, and was the inspiration for Mayberry.
Without further specific context, I just assumed this was a parody piece given the recent revelations.
