Independence Party erupted into violence Thursday that left a member of the European Parliament hospitalized with a head injury after an "altercation" with a colleague. UKIP leader Nigel Farage said Woolfe was initially in a serious condition and "things were pretty bad." He declined to identify the other party member involved in what he termed "an altercation." UKIP European parliamentarian Roger Helmer said Thursday's incident followed a party meeting that featured "some lively exchanges of views." Long-time leader Farage stepped down after the June referendum and was replaced by Diane James.
