A GoFundMe campaign has been launched to help a teacher’s assistant who was brutally attacked as he was waiting for the bus in Rosemead on Feb. 7.
Matthew Leung, 51, works at Gates Street Elementary in Lincoln Heights, near the former Keiro Retirement Home. He was waiting for the bus near Rosemead Boulevard and Marshall Street when he had a brief conversation with a man on a bike. A few minutes later, the man returned, grabbed Leung’s walking stick and started to beat him. A Good Samaritan found Leung lying on the ground bleeding and immediately called 911.
