A 21-year-old white man told police that while he was walking along 14th Avenue near 86th Street on Saturday, March 5 at around 11 p.m., two perps – both men in their twenties, one Hispanic, one white – began to argue with him and one pulled out a hammer and swung it at his head.

The perps fled in an unknown direction after the incident and the man was taken to Maimonides Medical Center.
