NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – A rally was held demanding arrests for the violent mugging of an 81-year-old legally blind man last month in Queens.
The victim, Bill Eichhorn, left church and walked to a Chase Bank on Queens Boulevard near 46th Street in Sunnyside around 9:30 a.m. on Oct. 26.
Eichhorn had just withdrawn money to buy a newspaper and coffee when he was beaten and robbed of $100 and his debit card, 1010 WINS’ Glenn Schuck reported.
“Just as I got the dollars in my hand, two guys came — one on either side — and said, ‘Give it up,'” Eichorn said. “I didn’t give it up right away so they got a little angry I guess and that’s when they popped me.”
Eichorn, his family, local police officers and members of the City Council held a rally outside the bank Tuesday to enlist the public’s help to track down the suspects.
“Two brutes decided that they needed to punch my 81-year-old, legally blind father to get his money,” Eichorn’s daughter, Mary Anne Gasparro, said.
