The incident occurred on Friday evening, January 25, in the home at 77 Tompkins Avenue, administered by the New York City Housing Authority. Between the 2 men quarreled, soon in the course went fists. Why the conflict began and whether it was familiar to the participants is not yet known.
The brutal beating was broadcast on Facebook. Handly knocked the enemy and continued to beat him (including legs) to the head. In the background heard someone laugh. One of the witnesses tried to stop Handly, but in vain.
