A New York City candy store owner was violently assaulted while stepping out for 'fresh air' early Tuesday.
with a rock attached to a belt, the New York Police Department said. Alvarez was injured in the eye and sustained a laceration to the head. He refused medical treatment. "I did expect that he was really going to kill me," Alvarez said.
Ray's Candy Store is open 24 hours and has been at its current location since 1974. Alvarez said he plans to retire in 10 years when he turns 100. A man pictured in this image allegedly attacked the owner of a New York City candy store early Tuesday."From him to be outside at 3 a.m. and get socked in his eye is just disturbing and disgusting," he said."It just shows you that the neighborhood is changing and it's not safe for everybody.".
