The victim, Joseph Borgen, 29, was kicked, beaten and pepper-sprayed by the assailants while on his way to a pro-Israel rally in Times Square.
“Moving forward I want to prevent what happened to me to happen to anyone,” Borgen said at a Long Island rally last week organized by the Simon Wiesenthal Center. “No one should be afraid of leaving their house and getting hit in the street.”
On May 28, the NYPD released photographs of three different suspects in the attack. Two individuals have already been charged in connection with the assault: 25-year-old Faisal Elezzi and 23-year-old Wassem Awawdeh.
