The DA credited the woman's bravery and 'presence of mind not only to get crucial video of her attacker but also to notice that he was strapped with a GPS device.'
Suffolk County District Kevin Hayden credited the woman's bravery and"presence of mind not only to get crucial video of her attacker but also to notice that he was strapped with a GPS device"A man repeatedly punched a woman in the head, breaking her nose, in an attack in Boston this month that began when he confronted the stranger for not saying good morning, prosecutors said Monday.
"It's difficult to comprehend the viciousness and randomness of such an attack, in this case on a stranger doing nothing more than watering her lawn. All over a perceived—and perhaps nonexistent—slight," District Attorney Kevin Hayden said in a statement as his office revealed details on the incident Monday.
Atkinson got out of a black Mercedes that was parked nearby and started to hit her, then got back into the vehicle and swerved towards her before driving off, prosecutors said. The bloodied woman caught his license plate on camera and told officers who showed up at the scene that she thought the man was wearing a GPS tracking device.
