One man was out for an evening stroll when someone came up behind him and bashed him in the face with a blunt object. Another victim was taking out the trash at his apartment complex when he was ambushed, and a U.S. Postal Service carrier was badly beaten while out delivering the mail after dark.Residents of Waltham, Massachusetts, are on edge after police said at least 10 men have been targeted by a mystery assailant in a string of unprovoked assaults that have occurred since Nov. 10.

“Waltham police are using all means necessary to bring these cases to an end as quickly as possible,” Detective Sgt. Steve McCarthy said in a statement.

McCarthy said the latest attack occurred around 8 p.m. on Friday when a culprit came up behind a man walking on a residential street, hit him in the face with a blunt weapon and ran off under the cover of darkness. As in the other cases, McCarthy said the person responsible for the serial assaults appears to be lying in wait and attacking victims by surprise.

On Saturday, police released surveillance video of an individual they described as “a suspect in the string of recent assaults around Waltham” and urged the public to contact them with any information on the person’s identity.

The video shows a man dressed in a dark hooded coat, light blue jeans and sneakers running down a street. Police did not specify when or where the video was taken.

Investigators only have a general description of the assailant, saying he appears to be a Black male, 5-foot-6- to 5-foot-10-inches tall and 160 to 180 pounds.

Police also took the unusual step of making reverse 911 calls to alert residents of the city, cautioning them to be vigilant and remain aware of their surroundings, especially after dark.

Authorities said that in all of the “random, unprovoked” attacks, the suspect has struck between 5:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. in the city 22 miles northwest of Boston.

Initially, the assailant appeared to be targeting residents of an apartment complex but has since spread out across the community of roughly 63,000 people, attacking several recent victims in the city’s downtown area, according to police.

David Cameros, one of the victims, told ABC affiliate station WCVB-TV in Boston, that he was attacked Wednesday night outside his apartment complex. He said he had just taken out his garbage and was talking on his cell phone while having a smoke when he was clobbered in the head by what he believes was a baseball bat.

Cameros said he was knocked unconscious and left with a fractured skull.

“I don’t know if it is only one or there are more attackers. The aggressor always attacks from behind,” Cameros said.

Another victim, who would only give his first name, Emerson, a mechanic, told WCVB he was targeted while out for an evening stroll also on Wednesday evening. Emerson remains in a hospital being treated for several fractures to his face and skull.

Emerson said the attacker came up behind him like a “coward” and that he didn’t have a chance to see his face.

“I did not have the opportunity to defend myself,” Emerson said Saturday, adding that he is awaiting surgery on his face.

Melissa Gallant, a friend of Emerson, said she and other residents of the city have been left rattled by the attacks.

“I know he’s beat up bad, bad, bad and he’s such a nice guy,” Gallant told WCVB of Emerson. “It’s heartbreaking. It’s not right. He helps everybody. He’s a very good man.”

      1. Everybody should arm them selves, shoot that bastard down like a pig, get neighborhood watch and wait for that pig

      2. It’s going too get more deadly. Harris,warnock, cone Biden all gearing up for white genocide.. your town, look for those calling all racist. Your college kids know who it is,they are part of the anti white militia. Muslms, gangs, just out of prison,. Illegals.. THERE IS ZERO DIFFERENCE IN THEIR DNA

RED DAWN,LOGANS RUN,THE ISLAND, SOYLENT GREEN, EISRNHOWER, REAGAN, CHURCHILL, THATCHER, CONSTITUTION,BILL OF RIGHTS, INDEPENSENCE.

  1. If these liberal judges don’t start throwing the book at these people it will continue and then we will really have a problem.

    1. A few of these judges or their families need to be whacked on the head to knock some sense into them and maybe it just might encourage them to do something about it Michael

      1. It’s their kids,they are worried about getting caught??????. Or those with student loans, signed by GULLIBLE parents or grandma’s house is collateral. Also any foreigners who have moved in being paid by 501c3,/SOROS. YOU CAN SPOT THEM, THEY STAND OUT BE LIKE RABID TERROTISTS IN THE DAYLIGHT. LOOK AT THEM, AND THEIR EYES DROP. WE GOT THEM HERE

      2. Oh no Black guys coming up behind people to beat them including a mail carrier? Hmmm where I have heard this before?

    2. Michael, we already have a serious problem. These punks are doing whatever they want. Unfortunately when “some” are caught the spend an hour away from their gangs/homes and they are let go. There crime is viewed by the cowards in so-called leadership positions feel it’s better to give them a brake. Maybe we should lock-up those in leadership positions and let the criminals assume those openings. At least the punks know what they are doing and they are proud of it. We failed in November to replace these worthless politicians like Schummer, AOC and her gang of whatever they are, Newson, Murry, and a cast of many more. We complain and demand action but when we should act at the ballet box we cowered. Our country will self-destruct very soon and we are too blame.

    3. If I lived in these folks’ neck of the woods I think I would make an appointment with a reputable counselor on how to deal with upset liberals, antifa, and blm types…..oh yes…..and numerous and sundry mooslims of course! After all these folks are just expressing their innermost heartfelt and stressful feelings in dealing with you people! They are the victims…..NOT YOU!!!! A little bump on the head is only to get your attention as to your social duty to understand their oppression directed at them by you!!! Oh I’m sorry….I almost forgot….I have a few names for those counselors that come highly recommended…..Mr. Smith, Mr. Wesson, and last but not least Mr. Ruger….oh yes Mr. Glock gives pretty good advice as well😘

      1. In Massachusetts you must have a permit to own, much less carry. I grew up there and things have gotten worse than it was. They DO NOT have “Castle Doctrine” which means you are WRONG if you defend yourself or family. Glad I left the Bay State before Kerry and Romney got involved. POS’S.

    1. You hit the nail on the head because the more we try to put God out our lives because of a small minority, I’m really afraid it’s not going to get better.

    2. Democrats feeling empowered because the MSM and Top-level dem office holders condone this BS but their silence

  2. This is what happens when the criminals are set free after posting instant bail and victims are arrested and charged even when they are defending themselves.

    Solution: Situational awareness and a licensed concealed firearm.

    1. We reap what the government sows. While defenders are prosecuted to the fullest extent, the privileged 13 % are free to prey on the 87%. White privilege my a$$. White victims is what we are.

      1. Why do they call it white privilege? What about Oprah Winfrey, Lori Lightfoot, Denzel Washington, Cuba Gooding, Colin Kaepernick, OJ, Cosby, Whoopi, Levar, etc. They are not privileged? Color has nothing to do with privilege. Money/power does. These people all have police or private security guards, ARMED, to protect them (well, maybe not Cosby). They should all just keep their mouths shut!!

    2. Boy we have open season on wild hogs, coyotes, etc. We should treat anyone who is in the act of looting or assaulting someone to be disposed of. The people need to take back our streets, cities, etc., now! Bring the Police back with more help and let them clean-up the streets.

      1. The police don’t need help, they’re good. They just need a nod from these wuss mayors!!

  3. B L M that black guy with the bat is Going to matter if someone catches him in the act. Fucking Coward is what he is.

  4. In that area carri protection and b on the lookout .Set this fool up.And if he going to do somthing Shoot him…Have someone be the bait and someone watching….

  5. SHOOT FIRST WHEN ATTACKED THEN CALL 911 TO HAVE GARBAGE COLLECTION COME TO PICK DANGEROUS GARBAGE IN STREET ! ! ! THESE PEOPLE ONLY WILL STOP WHEN THEY HAVE WHAT I SUGGEST HAPPENING A FEW TIMES THEN SINCE THEY AFRE COWARDS THEY DONT DARE ATTACK ANYONE TYHAT MIGHHT BE ARMED

  6. Someone’s going to to the upper hand on this guy, and it’s not going to be good.
    He’s a coward, and he probably had his free stuff taken away by mom, and he’s mad now.
