The police are asking for the public’s help in locating the suspect in the attack on the young man on the autistic spectrum on a bus in Petah Tikva last Sunday.
Remember, last Sunday, Liam, 22 years old, was attacked while traveling by bus from Kiryat Ono to his home.
“One of the passengers shouted at him for no reason,” his mother Tali told the Ynet website. “Liam got up to ring the bell because he was supposed to get off at the next stop, and this man just dragged him all over the bus without anyone intervening. When the door opened, he kicked him in the back, took him off the bus, followed him and continued to hit all parts of his body.” The young man was attacked just one stop before his home, when a stranger hit him and threw a brick at him.
According to the mother, “Liam is an eloquent guy, 1.87 meters, who could, in terms of his physical data, overpower this person – but he did nothing. He just wanted to get home.”
Petah Tikva police officers started an accelerated investigation, upon receiving the report. The investigation shows that the victim was about to get off the bus at the station on Salant Street when he was attacked by the suspect, the attack continued even after the victim got off the bus and then the suspect fled the scene.
According to medical sources, the victim is being treated at the Belinson Medical Center in a mild-moderate condition.
The police said that “anyone who knows details of his whereabouts or any other details that would allow the police to locate the suspect, is asked to call the 100 hotline of the Israel Police or the Petah Tikva station by phone number: 039393433 or phone 039393444 extension 0.”
The picture of the suspect is attached to this article.
