A security guard attacked by a homeless career criminal fears losing an eye

After being brutally assaulted by a homeless career criminal at the airport subway station, a woman who is traveling to JFK airport for her work as a security guard is concerned that she may lose the sight in one eye.

On September 20, about 5:15 am, Elizabeth Gomes, 33, arrived at the Howard Beach station in Queens.

When she refused Waheed Foster’s attempt to strike up a conversation, the 41-year-old threw himself at her, pulling her to the ground before kicking and hitting her.

Foster, who was detained for brutally beating his 82-year-old foster grandmother to death when he was 14 years old, pounded Gomes while she cowered on the ground.

One guy attempted to help Gomes, but Foster chased him away before resuming her attacks.

Gomes was left on the flood as he turned around and left. Soon later, the vagabond was taken into custody.

Later it was discovered that he had been detained for stabbing his 21-year-old sister with a screwdriver six years after the murder.

He was detained in 2010 after assaulting three staff members at the Creedmore Psychiatric Center, where he was a patient.

According to ABC News, at the time of the assault last week, he was out on parole until November 2024.

Do you realize how terrified I am right now? Gomes said to the network, “I was never the kind to be afraid.

I honestly can’t see anything on my right side. It just aches.

Every day there is a metro incident, she said. What happened to all of the police officers they claimed to have waiting to protect us? There seems to be no one around. I don’t comprehend.

She said that when Foster assaulted her, he was making references to Satan.

He is referring to the devil. Gomes said, “He’s talking about a lot of crap.

Foster faces criminal assault charges.

He is facing allegations in two further criminal instances for alleged criminal mischief and small theft.

According to the most recent NYPD figures, transit crime has increased by more than 43% so far this year compared to the same time in 2021.

According to the statistics, 1,670 crimes were recorded during the same time this year compared to 1,165 offences during the same period previous year.
