62-year-old White man randomly chased down and attacked by a group of black thugs during his nightly walk ‘I no longer want to live here.’
The 62-year-old was walking around 7 p.m. on July 15th in Staten Island when a group of thugs began to harass him.
“He raised his fists and said pick one and I said ‘not interested,'” the man said — “I thought it was just a kid joking around”
He was punched several times before fleeing, with the assault continuing off camera.
“I don’t know, maybe that set them off or something, I don’t know but they were looking for trouble,” he added.
The thugs fled when others came to help him on the road.
The 62-year-old man sustained bruises on his knee and needed stitches in his finger.
“His mouth is all messed up. He was blindsided and kicked all over his body,” a relative of the victim said “He fell flat on his face, not expecting anybody to hit him.”
The victim claims the group had targeted multiple people before his encounter
“They actually harassed two other people before me, before I got there,” he said. “So I basically walked into an ambush.”
