Who were these two punks who pelted a homeless man with rocks?
About 10 p.m. on May 29, the 42-year-old man sought shelter from the rain inside the vestibule of a TD Bank, on 5th Street near Oregon Avenue in South Philadelphia.
While inside, the man "was tormented" by two juveniles who repeatedly went inside the bank vestibule and pelted him with rocks even as the victim crouched curled in a corner suffering from his wounds, police said in a statement.
The hooded assailants were captured on surveillance video before they fled and police released it Thursday in a bid to find the pair.
The victim was taken to Methodist Hospital, where he was treated for minor cuts to his head and neck pain and was listed in stable condition, police said.
Anyone with information is asked to call the police tip line at 215-686-TIPS (8477) or the South Detective Division at 215-686-3013.
