BRONX - A cane-wielding robber was caught on video punching a Bronx woman in the face in an attack that could have been much worse. The attacker initially told his victim to take off her pants. 





At around 9 pm on February 8, a 19-year-old woman was walking a few blocks away from Yankee Stadium when a man with a cane followed her into an apartment building in the vicinity of West 164th Street and Woodycrest Avenue. They entered the elevator and once the door closed the man demanded that she take off her pants.

The victim was treated for minor injuries at the scene.
