Cops are searching for a pair who attacked a man in an unprovoked attack in Brooklyn.
According to police, at 4:25 p.m. on July 8, a 58-year-old man was inside the Langston Hughes NYCHA complex, located at 308 Sutter Avenue, when an unknown person approached him. Unprovoked, the suspect started punching the victim several times all over his body.
The argument went outside the building, where another suspect approached the victim and punched him once in the back of the head. The victim then fell and hit his head on the ground and fell unconscious due to the severity of his injuries and the fall.
Both suspects fled the scene on foot to the rear of the apartment building. Paramedics took the victim to Brookdale Hospital Medical Center in stable condition.
The police have published the video and photo of one of the suspects wanted for this incident:
