Pete Hegseth, a candidate for US Defense Secretary and the choice of President-elect Donald Trump, accidentally hit drummer Jeff Prosperi with an axe nine years ago. This was reported by the British tabloid Daily Express.
The incident occurred in 2015 during an axe-throwing competition on the Fox and Friends show. Pete Hegseth, who was then a host on Fox News, threw the axe past the huge target. The ax handle hit the musician in the hand.
