Attack on Pinay in NY denounced

Philippine Consul General Elmer Cato denounced as an “unspeakable act” the attack against an elderly Filipino woman living in New York who had been punched and kicked more than 125 times by her assailant.

Cato stressed that the attack on the unnamed victim, aged 67, is already the third incident in less than a week where elderly members of the Filipino community in New York have become victims of random violence.

Reports showed that apart from the physical violence that the victim suffered, the victim was also at the receiving end of racial slurs uttered by the suspect.

“We are outraged by this unspeakable act committed against an elderly member of the Filipino Community,” Cato said, in a tweet.

“Our kababayan is still in the hospital. We are reaching out to the family,” Cato said.

The Filipino diplomat said the consulate in New York is now in touch with the police to address the attacks, while reports in the United States claimed state that the suspect has been charged with attempted murder.

In March 10, the first racist attack involved a Filipina in her late 1950s who was pushed down the stairs at the 179th Street Station of the F Train in the neighborhood of Jamaica in Queens by an unidentified man.

The second one involved a Filipina in her 60s who was pushed at the Long Island Rail Road train platform by an unidentified man, also in the same neighborhood on the same day.

Both incidents resulted in injuries on the victims.

Cato earlier noted that New York is still experiencing a high crime rate with criminal incidents soaring almost 60 percent in February compared to the same month in 2021.
