WASHINGTON — DC Police investigators are asking for the public's help to find more than half a dozen people wanted for an attack in the area of 14th and U last month. Police released surveillance images of seven wanted suspects on Tuesday.
According to police, Thomas Lascarro was brutally beaten while trying to get some food at the McDonald's on the corner.
According to a DC Police report, Lascarro said the attack began because he didn’t say “excuse me” to his assaulters when he passed them by. The conflict soon spilled onto the sidewalk, where Lascarro was beaten while his attackers yelled homophobic slurs.
“They continued to verbally assault him using derogatory language, and not only that, they escalated to a different level,” Lascarro's husband Stuart West told WUSA9. “They threw trash at him, and they also dumped their drinks on him while he’s there bleeding, dizzy, confused, and alone.”
Now, police have released images of the wanted suspects below.
