Matthew Lloyd, 36, was charged with attempted murder and assault for the back-to-back attacks in Astoria on Aug. 19, according to cops and prosecutors.
The first victim was near Astoria Park with his girlfriend at around 6:10 p.m. when Lloyd, who was on a skateboard, allegedly smacked him in the back of the head with an orange bat, knocking him unconscious, authorities said.
But he then allegedly went back for the bat just about 10 minutes later — after noticing his next victim, a 79-year-old man standing on the sidewalk near 19th Street and 20th Avenue, Kenny said. Lloyd is also suspected in two other random assaults on elderly men in Midtown, Manhattan on Aug. 18, Kenny said.
