He has words with the first man, Dick Schaefer, and appears ready to leave before turning and suddenly tackling Schaefer into a flower pot. At that time the second victim, Mark Crosby, runs over to help. The suspect tackles Crosby and punches him in the face, then stands and kicks him before leaving.<\/p>\n<p>Crosby was seriously injured after the attack, suffering a severely swollen eye and nose and a fractured cheekbone. He was treated at the University of Maryland for shock trauma.<\/p>\n<p>John Roswell, who regularly prays with both Schaefer and Crosby outside the facility, told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wbaltv.com\/article\/amazon-wearable-air-conditioner\/44196819\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WBAL-TV<\/a> that despite his significant injuries, Crosby is on the mend. &#8220;Originally they thought they were going to have to do facial and eye operations on him, but he&#8217;s healing up well enough that that won&#8217;t happen,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/target-petition\/?utm_source=lan&amp;utm_medium=display&amp;utm_campaign=lan_website&amp;utm_content=target_petition\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-292702\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/LA23MAY_TargetPetition_resized-700x180.jpg\" alt=\"Target petition\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/LA23MAY_TargetPetition_resized-700x180.jpg 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/LA23MAY_TargetPetition_resized-300x77.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/LA23MAY_TargetPetition_resized-768x198.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/LA23MAY_TargetPetition_resized-500x129.jpg 500w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/LA23MAY_TargetPetition_resized.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Roswell also said noted that both Schaefer and Crosby have already returned to their sidewalk ministry work and that they won&#8217;t let the threat of violence stop them from fighting for life. &#8220;Worst case scenario, we&#8217;re a martyr for our cause,&#8221; he told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/baltimore\/news\/baltimore-planned-parenthood-protestors-attacked-video-suspect\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CBS News<\/a>. &#8220;Free ticket to Heaven.

He&#8217;s obviously dangerous. We&#8217;re not sure why this happened, whether it was a spur-of-the-moment thing. He suddenly was enraged. It could have been pre-planned. It almost sounds like it was. He waited until the opportune moment when Dick (Schaefer)&#8217;s back was turned,&#8221; Roswell said.<\/p>\n<p>Baltimore police are asking anyone with information to call detectives at 410-396-2411.
