The 18-year-old thug who was filmed knocking out an elderly man in Paterson, NJ has turned himself in, ABC7NY reports.
Kristian Gonzalez turned himself in to police around noon on Tuesday.
His attorney implied that Gonzalez has a history of mental or emotional problems which led to the vicious incident.
The heartless 16-year-old who laughed while filming the vicious knockout punch — and uploaded the shocking video to Facebook.com — turned himself in over the weekend.
The brutal knockout was filmed in December on a Paterson, NJ street. The victim, who was knocked out cold, apparently didn’t contact the police. He was treated at a hospital and released.
Police were alerted to the video on Facebook.com and launched a search for the thugs.
Gonzalez, who was 17 when the punch was thrown, was charged with second-degree aggravated assault and endangering an injured person as a juvenile.
The cameraman will be charged as a juvenile.

No points for that. His back was halfway turned and everything. And he was smaller…

============================================
God, people are so stupid!!! Not only do you commit a crime, but you’re dumb enough to upload it to FB (or whatever social network site for that matter) for the whole damn world to see? smh…he deserves whatever punishment he gets, and then some.
This is so heartless! I know a guy that knocked a guy out & he died.
No mas bebes! That doctor was on the right track! ?
Smh this is crazy. All of this mess for a damn like on social media. These kids today are so violent and reckless. They’ve been playing this game around my city as well. Also congregating in huge groups and running up on people in the metro, jumping them and running off just cause. Smh
I thought it was played out.
Anything for a like. Smh.
Girl thats a demon. I see u beelzebub
This was so bad!
I’d like to knock his bi$#@zz out.
We must stop ignorant people from breeding!
#ForcedSterilizations
People are out here doing just about anything for social media attention. I see videos of children and animals intentionally being hurt or frightened for social media attention. The videos are reposted and people actually laugh at them. It’s very disappointing.
Did he go to jail?
That game? I don’t know if the knock out game is over but they’re still jumping people for s&gs. That’s why I carry a knife and a taser. Wish a little fugger would run up on me. I’m slashing every one of those lil fuggers.
That girl knew he was cray. That’s why she covered her face with her hand…
A juvenile??? Really???
Good morning! Won’t watch video. Can’t. Type of shit makes my stomach ache — honest.
Fukk this punk. He chose his victim wisely. Couldn’t have paid him with #FormationTour tickets to run up on Pookie or Ray Ray and try that shyt.
Punk bastard
Somebody should’ve knocked his ass out for wearing that outfit.
They should have charged the lil nigg@s as adults and let Big Snookie and nem be their roommates! D@mn shame the kids today don’t have respect for elders! Knocking somebody out for a few measly likes? Smh…. Social media is the devil…..
LURRRRRRRRKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where have you been?!?!?!?!?!?!?
This dummy has a lawyer with a defense ready. SMH. His parents need to be knocked out for hiring someone to defend this idiot. His daddy should have marched him in with a lumpy eye.
Someone needs to throw a buck of acid in his face piece of shyt
Yes he did. Involuntary manslaughter (I think) He did about 5 years or less.
Now had that man died from injuries sustained or had a heart attack, his dumb a…… woulda caught an involuntary manslaughter or second degree murder charge, DUMB FK!!, NOW LAUGH AT THAT!!!
How much yall wanna bet that old man would’ve gave his lil ass the business had it been a fair fight?????
Dafuq? You mean fighting. Not playing a knockout game?
Wow. That’s crazy. But that’s the chance you take when you fight as an adult.
Right that old man look like he was full of life in his exercise gear and everything.
Shank the living shat outta their asses.
That’s why oldtimer didn’t seek treatment. Ain’t nothing but a boo boo to a boo boo.
At least the first one. When you get jumped, just split somebody.
#ifyoucantcopadeuce
Ma’am yes ma’am. Lol bet they ass think twice next time.
Anyone who is posting chit on social media for likes, or laughs at the expense of OTHER folks is wrong. Yall are a funny ass group of people, you know that?. Some of yall were JUST downstairs talking about Karen Civil’s Tweets were old, she has grown, let bygones be bygones. Gonna be the same folk up here talking about this dude was wrong. They BOTH wrong as a summa bish. Both sets of actions are done at the expense of other folks.
I’m literally schleep after this til 1230. Gn.
I wouldn’t bet against that. I’ve seen old cats knock these young dudes smooth out.
I mean really…some kids today have absolutely no respect for elders. I remember when I was a teen and my mom took me shopping to get some clothes for school. There was an elderly lady with a cane that was leaving the store. I called myself being impatient and cutting in front of her to leave. I didn’t touch her, I didn’t do anything to hurt her, but man did my mom yank me by the back of my shirt, pull me back into the store, cuss me out in front of everyone and made me apologize to the lady for cutting her off.
I never cut in front of anyone, elderly or not after that. #respect
Old school DNA extraction. ?
LMAO. Get shanked and then arrested rofl.
Sup Menace!!!!! They got your boy in here earning every dime they pay me. I ain’t got much time to play with yall no more…..
Word !!!!!!!! This ^^^^ Show some respect … these days it’s gone ugh
Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where that bus driver at when you need him????
“YOU GOIN TO JAIL NOW!!!!!!!!! YOU GOIN TO JAIL NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS made my stomach hurt. I hate to see any assault on the elderly, mentally challenged/handicapped and babies. Oh the ‘games’ I could play with him.
Well at least he’s 18 so that’s good.. so he’ll serve some real prison time for this instead of just a year of juvenile detention.
As my aunt says, “Stick and twist, baby!”
It was a fight, but the victim didn’t want to fight & was resistant to fighting back.
Exactly. These lil young punks think they’re tough for sneaking people, and quick as hell to pull a gun. Damn punks. An old timer would hand these lil young punk whipper snappers their asses.
Long gone. *sad*
He gon’ knock you out, talking about his Bugle Boy jacket.
That lil punk bish don’t want it with me. Lookin like he’s wearing his grandma’s jacket from 1991.
Girl I RARELY go around old ppl that drive slow on the highways and by-ways. I always say, “The Almighty put them there for a reason.” Yall better believe it.
I also know a lady that was mad at her ex so she called her homeboy to beat him up. Her homeboy hit him once dude fell & hit his head on the curb & died. He had a pregnant wife & kids. ?
LLS
Sup Menace! They got me earning every dime they pay me. I ain’t got much time to play with yall no more.
Me to, makes me think of my own mom (dad passed) and someone doing this to her.
Yep, at least one. Cuz when the rest sees that fool’s skin open up and start leaking, they will definitely fall back.
I know I been gone a minute. But what’s going on with being put in moderation everytime I try to respond to a comment? Sandra change some sh!t around? Or is Daquan just tripping?
Lmfao your aunt about that life
LMBO. I’ve told y’all about my late uncle who lived on the Southside of Chicago. Young dudes called themselves robbing my uncle at gunpoint. My uncle reached in his pocket for his knife but they thought he was packing so they ran. We were telling him how dangerous that was and he told us, “My aircraft was shot down in WWII. I was burned on over 70% of my body. I survived for 6 days without having a soul around and found my way to civilization. I’m not afraid of some little punks!”
Throw is AZZZZZ in Jail! That is just to protect him from me kicking his stupid, dumb, heartless, ignorant, disrespectful azz. Cause if it were my daddy, uncle, cousin, friend or even a dam stranger I would Knock him out!!!! Truth!!! just for being plain mean!!!
Speaking of kids and “games”, there is a “game”/EPIDEMIC going around HERE called “the suicide game”. Kids killing themselves “for likes”. Yep, yall read right. Attempting (and in some cases succeeding) suicide to see “who gone miss me when I’m gone.” Yep, yall read that right. How Sway??? THIS generation is GONE yall! GONE! #nopun
Daquan is just tripping because it sure lets a whole lot of foolish through.
WTH?? Why would you even film this AND post it? These kids are just doing so much extra to get any type of attention. Why would a kid think that is is OK? What a stupid thing to do that will have consequences that will follow this kid for the REST of his life. Just disgusting
Probably just tripping lmao
That’s like when that first shot go off.
There’s two types of people. Those who run, and those who look around to see where it’s coming from.
WTF kind of logic is that… How you going to know if they miss you if you’re dead anyway
what the hell? smh…I read a story about two teens that died from drinking mountain dew mixed with diesel fuel. I wonder if they were playing that game.
…..
The past two times I said o-i-l I got put in moderation. I just logged off yesterday…
Did yall discuss the BLM activist that committed suicide on the steps of an Ohio government building?
More than I’d care to admit. A guy from my hometown is walking around with a scar on his entire forearm from her cutting him with a broken bottle. The funniest advice is when she tells me to cut someone’s heel of his foot???
Terrible human being… He has no respect.
This “game” has folks hanging themselves.
In certain ‘hoods, the victim’s family members would want the authorities to just release that punk, so the family could just deal with him their own way.
This dude might be safer just staying in jail.
I was reading up on that. I haven’t even seen much news coverage about it either.
RIGHT! They don’t get it. They are THAT lost. I remember a loooonngg time ago, I was reading a story of a lil YT girl that broke up with a boyfriend and she said some shit like “I want to kill myself just to see if he’ll show up at the funeral.” Bitch whet?
^^^^^^^^^THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #salute to Unc
Why does that remind me of Hpnotiq & Hennessey…
Awful. Was a twin too. said his demons got the best of him.
Right! VERY LITTLE coverage.
Respect. Hopefully, Lil Butter will carry what I’m teaching him throughout his life.
Jesus …
Not this day and age. Some of these parents today let these children run wild and will be quick to defend their bad behavior.
Lmfao wait how does that work though. How you getting to the heel of their foot?
New post
New post – beat face baby
Let somebody attack an elder in my family. He better pray the law gets to him first.
I meant the family members of the victim.
I had to go back and clarify that.
Call him. *in my Erykah Badu background singers voice ‘Tyrone’*
Lmfao oh that’s next level crazy. Like Fez’s girlfriend in That 70s Show who used to choke herself just to see what it’d be like to live without him lmbo.
Yass! And they will!
LOL. I haven’t tried it, but my mom told me she destroyed some guy’s Achilles by cutting his heel.
I cant imagine seeing somebody doing that to my grandfather.
Gotcha
That pregnant wife should have monkey stomped her hateful azz! Ruined all those lives!
Lmfao I’m just trying to picture how this takes place in a fight. Like is she hiding around a corner all crouched down low, does she drop down as soon as a fight begins to stab the heel lmfao.
He is terrible,sick, no self worth and she is just as stupid as he is.
I hope they investigate and make sure it was suicide.
It’s the Internet and parents not monitoring what their kids are doing in the web. My son showed me a you tube video of a kid joning and talking about another kids clothes. I immediately told him I didn’t think it was funny and I asked him how would he feel if you were the person being made fun of? He got real serious and said I guess it’s not that funny. I was like ummm huh.
He have no mental or emotional problems I saw this video and it broke my heart to know that these kids would do such a thing. He walked up to that poor man while his friend was filming and knocked him out thinking it was funny. I hope his arse get knocked out in jail
People don’t realize the 4 things you just don’t mess with in this country are senior citizens, Kids , animals and Jews .
Sad. Dude put way too much pressure on himself.
A man needs to always take care of himself first before trying to take care of other people.
Brought tears to my eyes
They shalt have fun with him behind bars. That’s terrible smh
Thank God, he is not Black.
*Yeah, I said it.*
Then I woulda took away that fresh coat/shoes/jacket/shirt/pants just so he could see how it felt. IJS
And I’m thinking to myself, he didn’t hit the right one cuz let him had been in the projects or somewhere else! People pick on people they think they can beat! What a coward!
You know these cowards never face a real challenge smh
young generation is just a shame
Not Jews
His dumb and ignorant friends that were filming this and laughing in the background need to be forced to be at his court date and film him. Then told to yell out “World Star”while the judge sentences that a**! Then upload it to Youtube, Facebook etc! See how funny it is then! People have ZERO morals these days! Smh!
When those kids had that “Purge” going on in Baltimore, throwing rocks, garbage & injured several cops (right & wrong way to protest); looked at my Mom & told her, “there WOULD BE NO WAY for us (my siblings & I) to do this & get away with it”…Her response, “you damn right, you DO NOT have to like them but YOU WILL respect them”…SOCIETY IS SCARY NOW, CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE FUTURE.
Chile them Jews right up there they make things happen you look at them the wrong way you getting charged with a hate crime and life in prison
I asked one of the guys from the middle east what was he thinking going after some young punks. He said I grew up in real war. This is nothing.
Why did I hear that last sentence as Martin Lawrence as the security guard, Mr. Otis?
Heathen….
Chile…if that aint my granddeddy.
How did this become a “thing”?
How are we raising kids, if they think it’s cool to do this and smart to film it?
sounds like something similar that’s going on in the DMV…just sad
They oughta let me kick his a$$ in the name of the lordt ?
17 y/o and being charged as a juvenile ? Foh bring that ass to Atl he’ll b on rice st real quick
You’re absolutely right!
Hahaha lmao, sure do! ???

He better because he was a walking target
He better watch that booty in jail. Bruhs gonna take it from him. Lol
dumy, only turned hiself in because social media played a part. he prob. would have continued to play the game and hurt more people.
Dummy
Couldn’t have been my grandd-daddy. This boy needs a few knock outs done to him.
You is lying to ME!!!
The hulk… That is a crazy mixture of alcohol…
Now you HAVE to be some different type of crazy bih to choke yourself… O_o
Nope.
Lmao could you imagine what that looks like though. O.O.
