 Ruh roh. Another person was attacked on a SEPTA concourse yesterday, which means we’re in for another bit of hand-wringing from the media (unless the opinion settles on the idea the guy had it coming):
A West Philadelphia man is in critical condition this morning after being attacked by an unidentified assailant on a SEPTA concourse in Center City yesterday afternoon, police said.
No cameras captured images of the brutal beating which occurred about 3:25 p.m. on a stairway at 12th and Market Streets.
Witnesses said an older man stomped the victim, 23, numerous times in the head. Police are uncertain what prompted the beating. The attacker is described as black, with a scruffy beard and close-cropped hair, lanky, about 6-foot-2 and 170 pounds. He was wearing an oversized white T-shirt, dark capri-style jeans and tan Timberland boots.
“Black dude in an oversized white t-shirt” certainly narrows it down a bit, though that is a pretty thorough description. But capri-style jeans? This man should already have been taken off the street by the fashion police.
