A statement released on Twitter by NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea exposes the suspect involved in the brutal attack on the 65-year-old Filipino lady Monday, March 29th in Manhattan, N.Y. The man has been arrested.
38-year-old Brandon Elliott, the man identified in the attack, had already been on lifetime parole for previously being convicted of the murder of his mom in 2002.
Surveillance footage shows the woman being forcefully knocked to the ground and repeatedly kicked in the head and stomach while bystanders just watched.
Since being arrested, Elliott is now being charged with two counts of assault as a hate crime, among other charges.
