Gang of Teens Vandalize Car in Broad Daylight
I apologize if this news article has been posted this past week. It happened on Tuesday. I searched and nothing came up. I don’t know why, but this shocked me. The video of the attack is at the link.
Max Torgovnick told The Post Wednesday that he and his mother, who is in her 70s, had just dropped off a donation at a nonprofit organization and were heading to his father’s neurology office when they ran into around 50 teen bikers Tuesday afternoon.
Video of the harrowing attack shows the bikers surrounding the BMW at Fifth Avenue and 21st Street, with some pounding the vehicle with their fists and feet, and another smashing a bike on Torgovnick’s windshield.
One of the attackers then ran against the car and vaulted on top of the hood, causing the windshield to crack and partially cave in, video shows.
“At that point, I was afraid that they were going to break the window, get in the car, reach in, and pull us out,” Torgovnick recalled.
His mother was frantically dialing 911 while screaming, “We’re going to die, they’re going to kill us,” Torgovnick said.

He left out the N-word she repeatedly screamed.

The location of this is shocking too. This is right next to the Flatiron Building.
Billionaire Jeff Bezos' 90 million dollar triplex is a few blocks north of that corner.
Even if this happened in the deepest outer boroughs it would be shocking, but you'd think there'd be a fairly strong police presence around this area.

No, r9, the people who want this woman to have said the N word/ claim she did say the N word are just casually libelling her in the hope it will spread that she in fact *did* say the N word and thereby take the heat off the 15 violent attackers.
Because, you know, she's just the 79 year old victim of a violent crime. No reason not to libel her if her last name implies she's white...

I know for a fact that these kids will face ZERO consequences. They may have to face a judge and get a talking-to. They will serve no time, and they will have this expunged from their records at age 18 if they don’t reoffend.

Was there a reason for the attack? Not that violence is the answer to anything. I just want to know how it happened. And, yes the juvenile should be prosecuted unless it was self defense. There are laws the you need to follow and obey. If you don't, there are consequences and that should be the case every time.

R16 You sound dubious as to the quality of healthcare, education and food in NYC.
NYC has the best hospitals according to my parents, who were both in medicine. Via the Affordale Care Act, insurance is very cheap.
The schools in NYC are very good and there are specialty schools such as Juilliard, etc.
Food is bought by your parents when you’re that age, so what you’re fed is up to them. NYC has a wide range of supermarkets.

The teens on their BMX bikes were seen earlier harassing a cab driver who got out of the car to tell them to stop driving circles around his cab and witnesses said they attacked him a short time later one of the kids was doing wheelies behind the BMW while others were grabbing on to door handles for a ride so the driver stopped to avoid an accident and that cause a rear collision with the teen behind the car and then..

So how many of them were actually arrested?
Also, does this bitch have a name yet besides “Karen”?

How the fuck could it possibly be self-defense. There were two people sitting in the car posing absolutely no threat whatsoever. In fact, less of a threat than they should have because I would’ve run them down.
In New York, a civilian is REQUIRED to retreat in a possible self-defense case. You cannot be the attacker, get the short end of the stick and then claim self-defense. It’s your duty to retreat, unless you’re in your own home.

So tired of rage everywhere. Videos like these are made to incite it - as is the “”Soho Karen” video. I miss journalism and pragmatic, thoughtful writing - rather than 30 second snippets of images that only provoke emotion and provide no insight, intelligence or useful information. This is why we are where we are. Not these kids or Soho Karen - our “news” which has devolved into this has eliminated thoughtful analysis and replaced it with emotion.
