Nov. 21, 2013, — When you walk on the streets, you may not be ready to take a punch on the head by someone with all of his strength. You are not in a boxing ring after all. In a latest TV report by Channel 2 CBS station in NYC, more and more people have become victims of the so-called “knockout game.”
Police are looking into whether the beating of a Paterson teen was part of a new trend called the “Knockout Game.” (From News 12 New Jersey)

"Just last week, CBS 2’s John Slattery reported on a disturbing series of attack on Jews in Brooklyn. Now we’re finding out New York City is not alone. Brutal video is coming in from various places, including Pittsburgh, where a teacher was attacked, and London, where a teen was hit from behind," CBS 2 of NYC reports. The knockout attacks are extremely dangerous, and can be fatal. They were first reported in New Jersey. In September 2013, 46-year-old Ralph Santiago of Hoboken, N.J., was killed after his head was slammed into an iron fence. The three suspects were just 13 and 14 years old. |
