This is the black crime game they play in NY.

Typically done by kids, so this is a bit different.

Hope they keep him locked up for quite a while and the lady gets ok.

My mom is that age and I would not look kindly on anyone who did that to her if I caught him on the streets.

Looks like a hate crime to me.
