The 51-year-old doorman, Mauricio Bermúdez, was in his Jackson Heights, Queens neighborhood over the weekend and says a man he'd never seen before, beat him with a metal pipe after making an anti-Hispanic statement.Bermúdez says he's still in a lot of pain from the assault by a stranger Sunday night that left him with gashes in his head that needed staples, but says he's thankful to be alive.The NYPD is investigating it as a bias attack.
"I was walking in front of the store, and there was this guy in front of the store, like talking racist, saying 'I don't like Spanish people, what are you doing here?'" Bermúdez said."So I went back to him and said, 'You have a problem with Spanish people? If you don't like Spanish people, what are you doing in this neighborhood?'"
He says the man then went into the store, so Bermúdez continued on his way, but the man came back out and then followed Bermudez with a pipe.
