Surveillance video released by police shows the brutal assault of a man in Soundview last week.

The assault happened in the early hours of Sept. 16 near Westchester and Evergreen avenues, where the suspect attacked the 68-year-old victim and stole his wallet, which contained the victim's ID and only $70.

After knocking the man to the ground, the suspect can be seen dragging the victim on the sidewalk and punching him repeatedly.

The victim was treated on the scene and is expected to be OK, police say.
