The elderly protester who suffered a brain injury after being pushed by Buffalo police officers during unrest and protests will recover at an “undisclosed location,” said his lawyer.

Martin Gugino, 75, was pushed by a riot officer during Black Lives Matter protests earlier this month. The officers are heard telling him to get back before one pushes him, causing him to stumble backward and hit his head.
