NEW YORK CITY — A disabled man was pummeled by a gang of Brooklyn brutes at a New York fast food joint, just because he was trying to be a nice guy. <br /> <br />The New York Daily News reports that 37-year-old Joseph Molohon, who suffers from HIV, had been eating at a Texas Chicken and Burgers on March 1 when he overheard two men say they were a few dollars short. Having just received his Social Security money, Molohon wanted to be nice, and offered to help pay for their meal. <br /> <br />But instead of a thank you, the pair turned on him. One of the men picked up his cane and beat him with it, before then brutally assaulting him. <br /> <br />Two more men joined in on the attack, dragging the victim to the floor and dealing several hard kicks and punches. <br /> <br />As if that wasn’t horrendous enough, a fifth man tried to rob Molohon once the others had fled. Luckily, he had been laying on his wallet, so the thief only made off with some change. <br /> <br />Molohon sustained fractures, cuts, bruises, and had to be taken to the hospital. He’s now afraid to even leave his apartment since his attackers are still on the loose.
