A 98-year-old man was punched, kicked and struck with a broomstick and metal chair inside his apartment building in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, and investigators are now trying to identify the woman they say was responsible.

The attack happened around 4 p.m. Thursday inside a residential building near Maple Street and Rogers Avenue.

Video released by investigators shows the woman appearing to drop off flyers at a building. Investigators say she is the person they are trying to identify.

According to investigators, the 98-year-old man had just entered the building when he got into an argument with the woman.

They say the confrontation quickly turned violent.

Investigators say the woman repeatedly punched and kicked the man before hitting him with a broomstick and a metal chair.

She then ran from the building and headed east on Maple Street.

Despite the violent attack, the man suffered only minor injuries and was treated at the scene.

The incident comes during a troubling stretch of attacks involving older Brooklyn residents.

Last week, a 72-year-old man was punched multiple times in the face in Brownsville. Days later, an 83-year-old woman was slashed in the head while walking to church.

No arrests have been announced in this latest case.

Anyone who recognizes the woman seen in the video is asked to contact Crime Stoppers.
