76 Year-Old Woman Latest Victim Of Knockout Game

PIX 11: EAST NEW YORK, Brooklyn (PIX 11) – Police are looking a man caught on surveillance tape they say sucker punched a 76-year old woman in East New York.It appears she is the latest victim of the violent “knockout” game. PIX 11 tried to speak with the victim at her apartment but she is so shaken she refused to open the door. “I feel like crying,” the woman said from behind the door. The woman was walking along Wortman and Alabama Avenues when the suspect approached her from behind and punched her in the head. The suspect fled the scene but was caught on surveillance cameras in the area. The incident is the latest in what seems to be a growing and disturbing game. The goal is to walk up to unsuspecting strangers and knock them out with a single punch. It’s happening nationwide and recently here in Bushwick and Crown Heights. This attack happened right before community leaders wrapped up a news conference Friday denouncing the game.
