An assailant is being held accountable for allegedly punching a 60-year-old woman on the street, right in front of a New York City fire station. The firefighters inside made sure he didn’t get away.
Surveillance video shows a 60-year-old woman in a blue shirt walking down the sidewalk when a man on a bicycle swerves over and punches her in the face, knocking her down. He speeds off as four firefighters run after him.
The chase continued around the corner, where the firefighters struggled with the suspect and eventually took him to the ground. Police say while trying to restrain the suspect, a 29-year-old firefighter was punched in the eye, causing bruising and swelling.
Police later identified the suspect as 53-year-old Daniel Biggs, who has 18 prior arrests from robbery to assault. They say the victim doesn’t know Biggs. His motive for the alleged assault is unclear.

well if the cops wont do their job....the people will
Polar Bear hunting
and to go further...if the courts wont keep these people behind bars, then whats the point of the police arresting/risking their lives?
“His motive for the alleged assault is unclear.”
That’s BS. We all know the motive.
Could be something as simple as he did not like whitey. Seems to be the main narrative being pushed in these times.
Mentally ill Sociopath with 18 prior arrests....
Still trying to get his life together
Out on the streets again?
NY NY a helluva town
EIGHTEEN PRIORS!
Defund the courts! Defund the jails! Defund the judges! Defund the juries!
Elect Democrats.
What do you get?
Kudos to the firefighters.
Now let’s imagine if four journalists saw the same thing happen......
“Mostly peaceful youths greet abrasive white woman.”
And yes, we guessed.
And were correct.
What color?.
He was getting ready to start community college. He was turning his life around.
Seems to me that's the narrative being suppressed, not pushed.
I did appreciate the fact that one or more of the pursuing firefighters was black. Nice to see.
When I was in the USN back in the Seventies, I was jumped by four black guys and beaten, and when I told this to the petty officer who was my supervisor, he asked if I wanted him to get up a team of guys to hunt them down.
He was black. And that made a difference to me. For months after, I scanned the face of nearly every black person I encountered to see if I could recognize any of the assailants, but it was night when it happened, and I was under stress so trying to recognize the faces at the time wasn’t a high priority.
But I think that black petty officer offering to hunt them down contributed to my ability to keep that negative situation from becoming a chronic race-based incident...although for those black guys who ganged up on me, it clearly was a racist thing.
“His motive for the alleged assault is unclear.
....
Allegedly punching... Yeah, that’s what the lady thinks. .. shame on her for running into the creeps fist. Hopefully she didn’t hurt his hand....
Clearly we need bicycle control.
When do the BLM riots start?
Screw these people.
I cant imagine why people dont trust blacks, particularly the “men”.
I was hoping to see them beat the bejeezus out of him. “Oh sorry officers......he was *resisting*”. I would have.
Why are some here thinking the victim is white? Who can tell from that video?
The other day, the video below was released of another woman being knocked down on the street, this time in a purse snatching:
