Gay man from Queens, NY surprised he’s alive after suffering horrible attack

I thought I died…. Better it was me. Someone else may not have survived it…. I hope they rot in jail.’

Jack Price, 49, speaking one week after being attacked by two Latino men, Daniel Rodriguez, 21, and Daniel Aleman, 26, who first called him anti-gay slurs in Spanish, then beat and kicked him. A group of about 200 protesters marched through the Queens neighborhood on Saturday in support of Price. (NY Daily News) (1010 WINS)
