NYPD searching for four suspects in beating of Jewish man in Times Square

(NY Post) The NYPD released photos of the four men wanted in connection with Thursday’s vicious beating of a Jewish man near Times Square.

Joseph Borgen, 29, said he was at 49th Street and Broadway, walking to a pro-Israel rally when he was set upon by a mob that kicked and beat him.
