1:42Now PlayingThe New York Police Department has arrested a man in connection with a suspected hate crime against a 65-year-old Asian woman outside a Midtown Manhattan luxury apartment. The man in the incident was captured on video kicking the woman to the ground and then stomping on her in broad daylight Monday, while shouting “you don’t belong here.”
Brandon Elliot, 38, a parolee out on supervised release, was charged with felony assault as a hate crime early Wednesday, according to Police Commissioner Dermot Shea.
On Tuesday New York Mayor Bill de Blasio called the crime “disgusting” and vowed to bring the perpetrator to justice.
“I’m very frustrated by these attacks,” de Blasio said during a press briefing Tuesday. “I know a huge effort is being expended to educate, to get people involved in the solution, to find the perpetrators, to bring them to justice.”
A surveillance video, released by the police Tuesday, showed a man kick the woman outside an apartment building at 360 W. 43rd Street while the building’s security guards looked on but didn’t intervene. One guard then shut the door.
The Brodsky Organization, which manages the luxury Manhattan apartment building, said staff who saw the attacks were suspended “pending an investigation in conjunction with their union,” according to a statement Tuesday. “The Brodsky Organization condemns all forms of discrimination, racism, xenophobia and violence against the Asian American community.”
The victim of the attack, a Filipino immigrant, remains in the hospital recovering from a fractured pelvis, according to The New York Times.
