NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – A 33-year-old man faces assault charges after he allegedly knocked a pregnant woman unconscious during what appears to be a random attack in Brooklyn.

Jannatul Ferdous, 34, who is six months pregnant, was walking with her sister on Monroe Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant on Thursday afternoon when a man suddenly approached her, punched her in the eye and fled, 1010 WINS’ Glenn Schuck reported.

The incident was caught on video, which was released by the New York Post.

-----------------------
Ferdous was briefly knocked unconscious during the attack, but she and her unborn child did not suffer serious injuries, Schuck reported.

There had to be some other evidence. I sure couldnt pick him out of a crowd. But maybe the victim could, since he walked towards her.
