On September 14, 1874, Badger was seriously wounded in the Battle of Liberty Place, an insurrection by 5,000 members of the paramilitary White League, who fought against the police and took over state buildings in an attempt to seat John McEnery, the Democratic candidate for governor in the disputed 1872 election.
Among those injured in the fighting at Liberty Place was Algernon Sidney Badger, superintendent of the Metropolitan Police.
