New York Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) and state senator Simcha Felder expressed outrage Monday in the wake of a brutal attack on a young Jewish man in Brooklyn. 

The 60-year-old victim was knocked to the sidewalk and punched at least four times in front of 809 Avenue M shortly before 1 a.m. (local time) on Monday morning.

As he lay prostrate on the ground, another hooded assailant appeared to grab the victim's iPhone and wallet out of his pocket. 

A friend called Hatzalah who evacuated the victim to Maimonides hospital. He is in stable condition, according to community sources.

Hikind has offered a $3,000 reward for any information leading to the apprehension of the perpetrators. 

“I’m shocked that this could happen in our neighborhood, and in such a safe community,” Hikind declared. "This maliciousness and rampant violence cannot continue.”

"This incident is a prime example of why we need to continue pushing surveillance throughout our neighborhoods.”

Felder joined in Hikind's outrage, adding, “It’s a shame that people don't feel comfortable walking around in their own neighborhood."
