Notorious stroller-pushing attacker takes plea deal, faces five years in prison
The stroller-pushing maniac responsible for a string of assaults in Manhattan has pleaded guilty to assault charges. Sam Mensah, aged 33, now awaits his sentencing on September 5th, where he could potentially be sentenced to five years behind bars.
Mensah’s plea deal came just moments before his scheduled trial this week in Manhattan Supreme Court. The charges stemmed from a series of attacks on at least five women on the Upper East Side in 2023, leaving the community in fear and authorities on high alert.
Known for his violent and unprovoked behavior, Mensah had gained notoriety in the neighborhood for his brazen assaults. Surveillance images captured him pushing a young boy in a black Bravo stroller during these disturbing incidents.
With a history of nearly a dozen prior arrests, Mensah’s actions had instilled a sense of fear and concern among residents. However, with his guilty plea, justice may finally be served as he awaits his forthcoming sentencing.
Until the sentencing date, Mensah has been ordered to remain remanded, ensuring he poses no further threat to the community.
