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 attacker then snatched the cell phone out of the woman’s hand and punched her in the head. The victim screamed for help. The robber got off on the 6th floor, threw her cell phone in the hallway and ran.
The victim was treated for minor injuries at the scene.
Police obtained the surveillance video from inside the elevator which showed the suspect and the moment he punched the victim.
The attacker is described as a man with dark complexion and medium build. He was last seen wearing a blue hoodie, black hat, black pants, black and blue sneakers, and holding a black cane.
