A 27 year old woman had her head repeatedly bounced off the pavement, was stripped naked and then fondled according to witnesses at the corners of Van Horne Street at Communipaw Avenue early Sunday morning. Carlos Acosta and Davon Gordon were arrested after witnesses pointed them out and they have now been charged with robbery, aggravated assault and criminal attempt. These two losers also attacked a second victim walking on Van Horne Street, kicking and punching him into a bloody mess.
Police were able to make a positive ID on these jackasses because of the blood on their clothing and shoes.
What the hell is going on in this town? Beating and then fondling an unconscious woman?
Maybe it's time to take some of the people who work desk jobs in the Jersey City Police Department and let them drive around and just be a presence on the street. Just be more sets of eyes to protect the public. Something MORE needs to be done. People are not feeling safe here anymore. Leadership is needed by police chief Comey and Mayor Healy. MORE needs to be done. Perhaps a public forum or public Q and A is needed for them to understand the desperation felt by the citizens here.
It's gotten that bad.
Sorry, Johnny, but I couldn't resist:
