Thirty-year-old Neal Auricchio has worn many uniforms, previously as a Marine and currently as an officer of the Woodbridge Police Department. But it was his Rangers hockey jersey that may have made him the target of a brutal beating Monday night.
"He got banged up pretty badly," his father Neal Auricchio, Sr., told NBC New York Wednesday.
"Stitches in the one eye, and the other eye is pretty puffed up. He went for a CAT scan today, and we're waiting for the results on that."
Video of the assault was posted to YouTube Monday night, after the Philadelphia Flyers and the New York Rangers faced off in the Winter Classic in Philadelphia.
