The woman who was kicked down the stairs at a New York City subway station and bashed in the head with a hammer has been identified as 58-year-old Dr Nina Rothschild, a scientist with the city's Department of Health.
Sickening surveillance video shows a robber kicking her down the steps and bashing her in the head repeatedly with a hammer, fracturing her skull days after Mayor Eric Adams vowed to crack down on violence in the transit system.
Rothschild's brother, Gerson, is also a scientist in Upper Manhattan at Columbia University and managed to speak with his sister on Friday as she recovers from surgery. She remains critically-ill.
'From what she told me on the phone she was just walking down the steps to get into the subway on the way home from work when she was attacked by somebody from behind,' he said to ABC7.
'She apparently remembers all of that and she kept screaming, 'stop, stop' but the person either wouldn't stop, I don't remember exactly what she said, but ultimately grabbed the bag with the cellphone and the personal papers and apparently some jewelry and ran off with it.'

Yes...they’ve definitely taken over that place.
I saw the video of the attack, and from all the hammer blows I would have assumed that the poor lady would be in a coma, or worse. So it was good to read that she is alert, and talking to her brother.
Meanwhile, I’m sure Mayor Adams is only thinking of ways to spin this story to his advantage
Well guys, only nearly 4 years left for the new black diversity communist savior of NYC.
They're easy to spot.
The answer is that old adage... the only difference between a liberal and a conservative is..the Liberal hasn't been mugged yet...no need to spin it...
Bless her. I don’t wish this crime on anyone.
We all have to tell our nearby Dems somehow that soft on crime and pro BLM policies can hurt anyone.
Dems are to blame but psychologists say you can’t confront someone and say “You are wrong. You are causing evil. Change now.” Doesn’t work.
But somehow Dems have to change.
Easy to know a man who walks with a cane in NYC....somebody has to know the perp. Was this guy anywhere near Bob Saget?
Hope she makes it with no residual damage. Eric Adams needs Viagra cause he appears to be an impotent leader. Well, New York voted for him, and that’s what you get.
How can they change when they honestly believe they are doing it right? It's all our fault. Just ask them.
If we had just done Communism correctly, none of this would be a problem.
I would dearly like to pretend I'm joking.
Hit hard 13 times on the head. Then simply picks up her purse and cane and walks off like nothing happened.

And some demons wear White Coats and force pfascism on free citizens
This story goes in the my give a darn is busted, box
No, critically wounded and still in the hospital. Ill is cancer. Critically wounded by turned loose criminals is what you get from woke democrat politicians.
Let’s all take a moment to celebrate and embrace other cultures, and their ways of life and their traditions. Truly, our own way of not bashing other people in the head repeatedly with a hammer isn’t the only way of living that exists out there.
The lady obviously needed to upgrade to a cane gun.

Brother lives and works in the same town and just phone calls her?
He’s probably too afraid to walk through the streets to visit her.🤔
Yes, let's celebrate the diversity that is our strength.
Eric the Red strikes again on the streets of New Kabul.
PC and virtue signaling have killed street smarts. She’ll likely blame her white privilege.
