The New York Police Department (NYPD) released a 17-second video on Twitter, showing a black mugger brutally beating up an elderly white cyclist in broad daylight in Brooklyn on 24 July. Police said the suspect approached a 68-year-old man, who was riding a Citi Bike, at around 09:05 am. The footage shows that after the victim had been forced to the ground, the perpetrator, dressed in all grey, punched and kicked him multiple times.
