Gloria, who suffered bruises to her face and neck, spoke exclusively to FOX 5’s Duarte Geraldino.

She told the station she does not remember much about the incident because she suffered a concussion from the *******. Still, she described the incident as “scary.”

In surveillance video obtained by FOX 5, Gloria is seen walking her dog on a sidewalk near W. 66th Street and Amsterdam Avenue at about 7 p.m., when a man dressed in ****** appears to say something to her as he walks past her.

Moments later, the man in ****** turns around and walks back toward Gloria from behind, then swings, landing a punch to her face.

An 81-year-old woman was randomly attacked in the Upper West Side of New York City on Friday.

Although the station paused the video and did not show the full *******, it said Gloria hit her head on the side of the building before she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

The next clip in the video shows Gloria on the ground with the man striding away as bystanders rush to her assistance.

“I didn’t want to see the tape and maybe because I feel so lucky, because he could have had a ******,” she told the news station. “My neck was almost as **** as my face.”
