A Brockton man brutally beaten over a parking space recalled the harrowing attack yesterday from his Hub hospital bed, telling the Herald he’s lucky to be alive and the argument wasn’t worth it.
Sosa said he and his wife were out at a friend’s house Saturday night, and a neighbor was waiting for him when they got home.
Sosa, 40, said his car was parked in its designated spot — and the neighbor was fuming because it was blocking his space.Sosa said the neighbor wasn’t supposed to park there.
The pair exchanged words, Sosa said, and the other man threatened to return with his friends. Sosa thought he was joking, but the man came back a half-hour later with two pals, according to Sosa.
When he saw them coming with a “big piece of metal” and sticks, Sosa said he grabbed his baseball bat to keep them at bay until help arrived. But he said he never swung it as they unleashed a violent beat down.
He said he lost consciousness when one of them clubbed him in the head with a metal bracket. The next thing he remembered was waking up in the hospital.
“When you pass out, it’s almost like you die,” Sosa said. “They can do whatever they want to you. You don’t feel the pain anymore.”
Sosa said his wife tried to call the cops but one of the attackers took her phone and slammed it on her face. Sosa later learned that his daughter called police for help. Police arrested Juan Molina, 24, of Brockton, who is being held without bail after being charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.

MA is virtually a mandated, disarmed victim, zone. Thank you Romney.
What is this world coming to...seriously.
Do we have nothing better to do than beat people about a frickin’ parking space? Unreal.
....check their green cards????
...but that would be “racist”!
I once had a guy pull a gun on me when I tried to park in his hood while going to USC football game in LA.
The outcome would’ve been different if I had one of my LAPD buddies with me...
I wonder if the Black Panthers will have their panties in an uproar over this? and where is Marvin Hagler??
Brockton, once upon a time, was a decent place to work and raise a family. Now it is a stinking miasma of crime, corruption and drugs. The thugs have taken over the city, and there’s nothing the BPD can do about it.
Pity.
What of a gun have done to prevent this? Man is lucky to be alive.
Was this also “For Trayvon” as well?
And so,this is what it’s come down to. You get your ass beat if you’re a certain skin color (or not),if you complain about some minor issue,or if you just glance in someone’s direction and that person has a chip on their shoulder. Just shut up,avert your eyes and stay indoors with the curtains drawn. Really? How ridiculous this all has become! I am so sad for us as a people,and for what’s happening to us. This madness has got to stop.
There were no caucasians involved in this, why worry. It only causes and uproar when whitey is involved. No story here.
Was this also “For Trayvon” as well?

Well, by profiling (by name and look) these are obviously “white hispanics” so maybe they were ALL doing one for “George”???
Wonder if the NYT has a graphic on White Hispanic on White Hispanic crime...Would kind of doubt it since BOTH are ‘made up’ but they will have some #’s whipped up directly.
Yes, unfortunately, this is what it’s come down to. What decent people have to do to survive in this world is to take the advice the Godfather gave his sons (in the novel, not the movie): “Don’t fight with strangers.” If a stranger complains about the parking space your car is in, apologize, move the car, and quickly get far away from the complainer. Forget about being “right” because the cost of being right when you’re dealing with strangers could be your life. Every stranger is a potential psychopath and you should act accordingly.
“It only causes and uproar when whitey is involved.”

You’ve got that exactly BACKWARDS.
The RacistMedia goes into full uproar mode in the EXTREMELY rare instances of white on black crime....even the ones they fabricate.
Hispanic is caucasian.......
Wait a minute. Put a hold on my previous reply:
Perhaps you meant when “whitey” is involved as the perpetrator....again so rare, that they have to create instances of this.
Brawley
Duke Lacrosse
George Zimmerman
Etc
Won't work. I have some familiarity with what is taught in prison and jail. This is known as Trying you. If you fail this test, the next thing they will take is your life.
This is Hispanic on Hispanic.
Yeah, I got a kick out of that years ago when the libtards created another box to put people in . . . "Hispanic, Chicanos, Latinos, etc." and made them something other than Caucasian.
It's so bad that on my last 3 census forms, I had to check other (if it was on there) to identify myself as an AMERICAN. Can you imagine that in the United States you are an "other" because of these stupid ass libtards? And I don't know if "other" was even on the last census. If it ain't on there, I don't check a thing.
A buddy of mine did the same thing on his census and got some hammerass from the government threatening him if he didn't declare 'what he was.' My buddy wouldn't budge, and they eventually dropped it.
