It’s not his first arrest. Police sources tell CBS2 he’s been arrested more than 100 times before on a slew of charges.

CBS2’s Jenna DeAngelis spoke to the victim Tuesday.

The disturbing assault was caught on surveillance video. A 92-year-old woman was walking on Third Avenue when for no apparent reason a man pushes her. She hits her head on a fire hydrant on her way to the ground.

I read a couple of articles on him. He’s supposedly diagnosed with schizophrenia when he was 18. Most of his arrests were jumping the turnstile in the subway, weed, groping women on the subway, trespassing. It looks like he’s been wandering the streets for over ten years, a very disturbed person. Police pick him up, arrest him, in and out, in and out.

Watching the video there’s obviously something wrong with him. His social worker claimed he couldn’t get his medication because of the virus but that sounds like his social worker sucks at her job. They’ll put him in jail for awhile. He’ll get out, probably sicker than he went in and on it will go.

What’s the solution for people like him?

No, it's doesn't look obvious that anything is wrong with him. Making excuses for his crime and trying to make him the victim is not the answer.

We need psychiatric hospitals for the mentally ill like him to stay until he becomes stable and then a supervised halfway house. We have them, we just don't have enough of them to meet the needs of all these mentally ill homeless adults.

I’m sure a social worker will help him find his way.


There are several habitual offenders, like this, in my town. They have been to prison, jail, court ordered treatment, with no success. I think one got shot a few years back, though.
