NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – A violent mugging in the Bronx was caught on surveillance camera.
The victim is recovering from his injuries, and working with police to find the attacker.
Andres Pichardo, 64, has watched the surveillance video repeatedly, but says it still doesn’t seem real.
Last week, steps from his door, a stranger grabbed Pichardo’s thick gold chain and tried to rip it from his neck.
As the victim struggled to keep from being choked, the mugger dragged him down the hallway before fleeing.
Just spoke with the victim. This is the bruise from attempt to rip chain off his neck. He has seen the mugger in the neighborhood. Very shaken but tremendous family support.
