76-year-old punched in back of head by woman spouting anti-Asian comments: cops
2022-07-21
[NYPOST] A 76-year-old was punched in the back of the head by a woman who spewed an anti-Asian statement at her in East Harlem in an unprovoked attack Wednesday morning, cops said.

"I hate Koreans!" the attacker yelled as she punched the woman in the head with a closed fist around 10:45 a.m. at 112th Street and Third Avenue, cops said.

Cops arrived and arrested the attacker, police said. Charges against her were pending and her name wasn’t immediately released.

The victim refused medical treatment.

Hate crimes were up 12.6% so far this year, to 348 from 309 in the same period last year, according to the most recent NYPD data released Monday.

The city has seen a rise in hate crimes against Asian and Jewish Americans in recent years.

Up-to-date statistics for those groups weren’t immediately available.

#1  There is a distinct lack of curiosity in too many NY Post articles.
