What kind of degenerate scumbag sucker punches a 76-year-old woman?
A 76-year-old Brooklyn woman was punched in the back of the head by a stranger in what residents fear could be the city’s tenth “knockout game” attack.
Yvonne Small fell to the ground after being punched by her assailant on Alabama Ave. and Wortman Ave. in East New York about 11:35 a.m., according to police sources. She was treated at Brookdale University Hospital and discharged. Her attacker was being sought by police.

As she was being attacked, an already-planned rally against the sick game was wrapping up in the same neighborhood.
Activists called for an end to the “game,” in which punks try to knock a stranger unconscious with a single punch, then post video of the attack online.
“We’re not going to tolerate anybody striking, hitting or putting their hands on our women in any shape or fashion,” said Tony Herbert, president of the National Action Network Brooklyn chapter.
