(CBS/AP) A New York City mugger attacked a 101-year-old woman, punched her in the face and knocked her over before making off with her handbag, according to police and a security-camera video.

Shortly afterward, the same suspect victimized an 85-year-old woman, also using a walker, police said Friday as they pressed the public for tips that could identify him.

The attacks took place in separate buildings in the Jamaica section of Queens last Sunday.

The suspect, a black male in his 30s, is wanted in a string of neighborhood robberies.

Rose Morat, 101 years old, was assaulted in her apartment building's lobby around 12:30 p.m. The suspect, who pulled a ski mask down over his face, was seen in security-camera footage opening the door for Morat before throwing a flurry of punches at her as she steadies herself against her walker.

"I was not unconscious, but I was startled, and I thought: What happened?" said Morat.

The suspect appeared to spit on his victim as he made off with her pocketbook.

About a half-hour later, 85-year-old Solange Elizee was assaulted outside her apartment a half-mile from Morat's. Police said the suspect followed her on an elevator and got out on a different floor from hers, but then ran up the stairs and confronted her at her apartment door.

Elizee said he had asked her in the elevator what floor she was headed to, explaining, "I like to help old people."

But as she went to close her door, he threatened her, Elizee said. She said the suspect also beat her in the face and pushed her down. "I got blood coming out of my mouth," she said.

Her handbag was taken, police said.

Morat was battered and bruised but unfazed. As she told WCBS correspondent Dave Carlin, "God doesn't want me up there, he wants me down here."

Both women said they would have just given the man money if he'd just asked them; instead they were both hospitalized.

The mugger's take? $33 from Morat, $45 from Elizee, along with her wedding ring.

"I feel sorry for him that he has to stoop so low to get money," Morat said. "The man must be a sick man."

"I could ask him if he has a mother, a grandmother, too," Elizee said. "You know something? I am praying for him."

The suspect was riding a reddish-pink bicycle and wearing a winter jacket with a fur collar around the hood at the time of the attacks.

Anyone with information on either of these cases is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers hotline at (800) 577-TIPS.

That man deserves vigilante justice... or overzealous and emotional cop justice.

I'm sure there's a special place in hell for people who knock down, punch, rob and spit on hundred year old women. I wonder how the prison population views guys like this.

That's a good question. Hopefully they view it in the same capacity as those that hurt children.

So hitting old women warrants death?

Not sure about the death part, but people always view crimes against those that really can't defend themselves as being especially heinous. This includes children, women of any age (imo) and sometimes animals.

Yes. A number of things warrant death, this is one of them. You have to wonder if he will be making any contribution to society in the near future? Since it was obviously not alack of judgement (spur of the momment) since he did it again to another elderly lady afterwards you have to assume this is his mentality. So its better off if he was dead :)

So he also robs 12-year-old girls, eh? :|

Why in God's name would you have to punch a centenarian woman to rob her? A simple 100db blast of, "Give me your purse, b!tch!" would be enough. This dude needs to DIAF.

"Oh won't some one PLEEEZE think about the criminals!"

He's already shown that he's a predatory punk who vicitimizes old women who can't defend themselves...receiving 2 to the back of the head is almost too easy for him. But, it's "an appropriate response".
Putting him in prison where we have to continue to feed and clothe him at the cost of over $36K/year (2001 numbers) as well as medical costs etc. continues to add to his list of crimes...because it's a crime every time someone like this takes a breath...

When you hit multiple old women, yes. That makes you a scumbag with a negative value in society. Euthanization is the best solution, unless you prefer to keep him alive by A) letting him batter and mug old ladies, or B) pay for him with your taxes.

Frankly, I'd prefer to pay for the lethal injection that I'd like administered to him. I don't believe that I should have to pay to keep degenerates alive.

Umm... Who gives a ****** about him? What has he done to make anyone care about him? A guy who beats up hundred year old women for pocket change is not a very sympathetic figure.

A person who commits violence on someone who is physically incapable of fighting back is the lowest form of human and as a society, we don't need people like that running around. I'm not advocating the death penalty for this guy, but if he got hit by a bus tomorrow I'd buy everyone in the bar a shot.

So what he did is worse because she couldn't fight back? Is it fair that you have so much hate for this person, but probably not for someone who, say, mugs a 30 year old man?

But I agree: this guy is scum. But does he deserve death because of what he did? No. But if he did happen to die, I can't say I would be bothered.

As to your first comment, yes, there is a difference. It's the difference between stomping a puppy to death and picking a fight with a pit bull. Neither is good but one is far more despicable than the other.

As to your second comment, read my post. I do not advocate the DP for him. But like I said, I would have no problem with any situation that causes him to assume room temperature.

Hopefully that guy gets what's coming to him.

On the brighter side of things, was anyone else impressed with the 101 year old's health? IMO, she looked and sounded a lot younger than her age. If you put her next to the 85 year old that was also beaten, I'd have said the 85 year old was the 101 year old. Nice job, Rose :thumbsup:
