New footage of the savage assault on a disabled woman in a Manhattan subway station captures the hulking brute claiming he was trying to help the victim “with your f–king walker” during the beating.
The lengthy cellphone video – taken by a transit worker and obtained by The Post Wednesday – allegedly shows Norton Blake, 43, beating 60-year-old Laurell Reynolds with a cane, a belt and then his fists inside the West 116 Street and Lenox Avenue subway station early Friday.
After he’s done hitting, smacking, punching and kicking the defenseless woman, the suspect yells at his cowering victim that he was “trying to be a brother” to her, the nearly three-and-a-half minute-long clip shows.

A white supremacist beating up on a helpless Afro-American woman.He is a black white supremacist, the most heinous kind.
Nice of the transit worker to help out.
“...claimed he was trying to ‘help’ victim with walker.”
Another Joe Biden. Same thing.
Power company should help him with his electrical connection.
Folks who try to help out in NYC often end up jailed by the DA or knifed by the attacker.
Someone who chooses not to help might well have that in the back of his mind.
(That’s not an excuse. But it is an explanation.)
Honestly, in her defense, what was she going to do but get hurt, unless she’s armed.
Also, she’d, probably, get fired for interfering.
The only thing worse than the beating is that the police heard his excuse, and accepted it enough to let him go.
Transit worker was female...not much she could have done other than provide another victim...

Yes, the transit worker should be charged with something — don’t know what. Awful. Prayers for that poor woman.

I wonder if this has something to do with statistics. One way to reduce a city’s crime stats is to simply ignore crimes. So that wasn’t a vicious assault. It was just a disagreement between two subway passengers.
If you live in New York and are not packing a U-Haul, you’re a fool.
A kinetic interaction
‘the suspect yells at his cowering victim that he was “trying to be a brother” to her’
With “brothers” like that, who needs white devils?
People stop helping when Samaritans get imprisoned.
Fixed it for you
I’d like to “help” him in the same way.
Yeah. But for all of the cameras, some spontaneous vigilantism might be in order.
