To Concerned CH’er:
Regards from the Rebbe’s Shtodt!
B“H R’ Dov-Ber was not seriously injured in the attack and he was in shul and doing just fine the Shabbos after it happened (I no longer recall if it happened on a Wednesday or a Thursday), leading the weekly farbrengen as he always does Shabbos morning.
I know him very well and in fact I did not realize what had happened until after that Shabbos as B”H by Shabbos the only visible damage was the redness in his eye which I barely noticed behind his glasses and which B”H is now healed and has been healed for quite some time.
