Special Needs “HASC” Resident Viciously Beaten In Flatbush

A “special needs” young man in Flatbush was viciously assaulted in an unprovoked attack, Wednesday afternoon.

Sources say that the 20-year-old victim had just walked out of a HASC Home on Webster Avenue near East 8th Street, when an individual approached him and assaulted him. He was punched multiple times, and had a rock smashed into his head. No words were exchanged prior to the attack.
