You may remember when Wiesel was in San Francisco earlier this year for a peace conference, a delusional New Jersey Holocaust denier attacked him in a hotel elevator. So we're making extra efforts this time around: security is expected to be tight when Wiesel accepts his award, and they have not released the location of the awards ceremony to the public.
Just in case you were wondering -- they did catch the guy who assaulted Wiesel, and he's going to be extradited to California so the SF DA's office can prosecute.
