A woman shoved an elderly lady to the ground and critically injured her in an unprovoked attack in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood, police said Saturday.
The 87-year-old victim whacked her head when she was pushed from behind at West 28th Street and 8th Avenue around 8 p.m. Thursday, police said.
The victim remained hospitalized in critical condition Saturday, according to authorities.
