Frightening footage shows the moment a 67-year-old man was brutally accosted in a Houston parking lot after getting confused and mistaking his attackers' car for his daughter's.
The victim attacked in the clip has since been identified as Florentino Hurtado, who relatives said was diagnosed with dementia and Alzheimer's two years ago.
The men seen carrying out the beating - which happened Saturday outside a local meat market - are believed to be Trayvion Lockridge and Derodric Stephens, who are both in police custody following the assault.
The pair - allegedly seen bombarding the senior with blows before stomping him to the ground - are being held on charges of aggravated robbery of a victim over the age of 65.
The state first asked Lockridge's bond be set at $1million, but the defense countered with a request for $3,000. The amount, in turn, was set to $50,000, after cops aired their belief Lockridge punched Hurtado eight times and stomped him at least four.
Scroll down for video:
Stephens' bond, meanwhile, has not been set, as prosecutors said he has five pending cases in addition to the new charge. The allegation, more serious than regular aggravated robbery, carries a max penalty of 99 years in prison.
As Hurtado recovers from a broken cheekbone, numerous cuts that required stitches, and a possible traumatic brain injury, his daughter Jessica on Thursday described how she believes the attack transpired.
'My dad, you can see him stumble up and get up, and you could tell he was obviously confused and dazed as well, and he started wandering towards the pawnshop,' Jessica told KTRK, narrating the now widely seen security clip.

There is no mercy or understanding or compassion in those animals. A decent human would have quickly realized the fellow was confused and offered help.
Scum like these make perfect woodchipper feedstock...
Might be time to go pick up a few Dilbert books for the shelf...
Proven correct time over time. If whites did this to blacks at the same rates, we might get some hesitation on the hood culture. When the SHTF, will anyone let political correctness control behavior?
When I was a kid my parents had two Chevrolet’s. Different years and models. I found out one day they shared the same ignition key.
back in the day, the old victim’s family would serve appropriate justice to the criminals in a case like this...
The two subhumans deserve the death penalty.
They mistook her for Laurie Klausutis.

This is the environment they evolved for.

The usual suspects. The rap music made them do it that’s it
Years ago I had just purchased a new Toyota 4-Runner with the V6 engine. It was from the very first shipment of the V6's to the USA. It also had silver stripes that were the uncommon type available. I had a TDY to Chanute AFB, Rantoul, IL for six weeks.
One day I walked out of the Base Exchange and to my vehicle. My key would not open the truck and the owner came up and asked me what the heck I was doing. I looked down the row and three cars down was my 4-Runner and they were identical, inside and out.
We both got a good laugh out of that one.
Two whites commit hate crime attack on black with dimentia.
Truly— the hell kind of names are these— are they from some stupid guide book? Trayvion not the famous now dead Trayvon, and the apparently thought to be “French” name of “De-Rodric”. Honestly, the mind gives up on this mentality. Not even african derivative names which would make more sense.
Yup, the usual suspects.
Should I feel racist because I knew they were black before even clicking on the link and seeing them?
Amid the Biden-caused chaos at the border, more and more Africans are crossing illegally. I fear that we are importing much of the “casual” violence and death attitude presented in the article to our own detriment. Until we get control of the border (and after) it will be up to ourselves (self and families) to be aware of our surroundings, others present and immediately depart or be prepared to defend life itself from these threats.
The savages will, no doubt, get off lightly and the victim will be lucky if he isn't charged
In da hood you doan disrepek no one and you doan touch dare shyte.
I’m censoring my response. It involves copious profanity and a very specific and applicable epithet.
