Woman nearly beaten to death by Venice canal attacker speaks out
A woman recalls the terrifying moment she was nearly beaten to death by an attacker while walking along the canals of Venice, California. On April 6, the victim, Mary Klein, 54, was walking near her home at around 10:30 p.m. when a man suddenly attacked her from behind. “All of a sudden, I just get knocked out,” Mary told KTLA’s Chris Wolfe as she recovered in a hospital bed. “My teeth got knocked out. My jaw is wired shut. He bashed my face in.” Mary said the brunt force of the attack knocked her into an instant daze. She only remembers falling to the ground and being bludgeoned as the suspect repeatedly punched her in the face and head.
