Two people in New York have been targeted in the past month by gangs of youths in attacks which resemble the so-called “the knock-out game.”

The most recent incident involved a 43-year-old man outside a Shake Shack at Old Fulton and Water streets in New York’s DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) on Oct. 26.
