Brooklyn man busted in two separate anti-Asian attacks in NYC

A Brooklyn man was busted Wednesday for attacking Asian people in two separate attacks in New York, police said.

Joseph Russo, 27, was hit with hate crime charges for both incidents — allegedly shoving an elderly man to the ground on Monday morning and assaulting a 32-year-old woman last month, according to the NYPD. In the most recent incident, Russo is accused of randomly pushing a 77-year-old man while he looked at vegetables for sale in front of the J&R NY Supermarket in Sheepshead Bay.
