The New York City Police Department (NYPD) is searching for a man who punched a 78-year-old woman in the head in Brooklyn earlier in June, continuing a trend of unprovoked assaults on elderly people in the city.
The elderly woman was walking down Broadway near Park Street in the Bushwick neighborhood when a man walking in the opposite direction hit her in the head. He is seen casually walking before flipping his closed fist out, punching her in the face.
