Surveillance video captures attack of 66-year-old man.

Surveillance video captures attack of 66-year-old man.

He was just getting home Thursday night when he said he was attacked by a group of young people. He had a gun in his face, a scuffle unfolded, and before he knew it, the young people kicked him, and he was knocked out.

That’s what happened to 66-year-old Bernie in a neighborhood near Patterson Park in Baltimore City. His left eye is swollen, black and blue, and he has seven stiches near his eyebrow. Bernie didn’t want his last name shared publicly but recalled the horrific attack.

He said there were five suspects who attacked him. Baltimore Police were able to track down and arrest two of them: Montaz Bailey, 18, and an unidentified 15-year-old male. The 15-year-old suspect was taken to the Baltimore City Juvenile Justice Center “to request a review for detention,” according to BPD, but he was released to a guardian. The 15-year-old and Bailey both have prior arrests, according to BPD.

After reviewing the video and evidence, Baltimore City State’s Attorney Ivan Bates authorized an attempted first-degree murder charge to be filed against Bailey.
