In a shocking incident captured on video, a Brooklyn man violently attacked his wheelchair-bound neighbor over a dispute involving dogs. Levi Kabakov, an Orthodox Jew, allegedly assaulted Troy McLeod while he was walking his muzzled German Shepherds.

'I was scared, I was trying to get back up, I was in shock and thank God someone was there. It felt like a vengeful vibe to me... There was no need for it.'
'How can you do that to a man in a wheelchair? The children were fine,' said the woman recording, as other neighbors come to McLeod's defense.
