Suspect Is Rasaan Zawadi
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KCRA) -- A 21-year-old man was arrested Thursday in connection with the attack of a woman that was captured on video and posted online, according to the Sacramento Police Department.
Rasaan Zawadi was taken into police custody for assault with a gang enhancement, says a news release, adding that officers do believe this crime was gang-related.
Police said they're still looking for a second person involved in the attack, and urge anyone with information to call the department.
On Oct. 12, police learned of the attack -- which was likely posted on the Internet by the suspects themselves, officers said.
The video had gone viral already, and people from around the country were calling the department, asking about the unprovoked attack, police said.
Detectives learned patrol officers went out on an assault call Oct. 1, around noon, near Mack Road and Center Parkway.
When police arrived, they found the suspects had left the scene already and the victim -- a 42-year-old woman -- "did not wish for prosecution at that time," according to the release.
After viewing the viral video, police worked to identify the suspects. They received tips, and eventually became confident Zawadi was the first suspect to hit the victim.
Detectives, with help from the Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office, were going to start looking for Zawadi and even obtained a search warrant, but a deputy happened to stop him Thursday morning on an unrelated incident.
Zawadi was stopped near German Drive and French Road and arrested.

Good.
Let the SOB rot, if convicted.
Give me a couple of hours with him and he will tell who the other one was, that is if he doesn’t bleed out first.
I tend to think that even most gang bangers are going to hang their head in shame over this one.
Hopefully, some prison justice will catch up with him on his life journey.
I think most hardcore gang bangers are sociopaths and could care less who they injure or kill.
Good news.
Child molesters are the lowest of the low, beating up a mentally challenged woman has to rank pretty low on the scale as well.
Somali?
another black? surprise, surprise, surprise!
“Somali?”
Looks to be another of or endless stream of ‘refugees’ that we just can’t seem to say no to. We need their diversity. From the Latin, diver=bend over, sity=White Man.
If I were king for a day, Mr. Zawadi would be hanged and all similar scum would meet the same fate.
Sorry to break it to you. He served up some black justice on a YT. He will be welcomed as a hero in his new home. THAT is how much they hate.
Terminate!
Our president has just ordered up 80,000 more Muslims imported this year alone. It’s part of his Diversity Initiative.
Devolution in action.
He’s not a man, he is a feral human.
A couple of hours? Have you no water and a board? Minutes are all that would be required! Besides the feral mutt looks like he would sell his Mother for a dollar.
I saw the video, it was a brutal attack. This thing that passes for a human being is a coward!
double tap and throw him in a dumpster. Same for the other POS
