Jahangir Yaghoubi, the victim s brother, says he is left with heartache and disbelief.
“He was trying to retire. He says ‘I gotta take on projects before I retire.’ He took care of hazardous waste, fixing freeways, and tried to save the public every penny he could!”
We met the brother near Falmouth and Catalpa where police responded to the second unprovoked attack of the day in Anaheim.
“He was alive when he arrived at the hospital. He did go into emergency surgery. Unfortunately after about an hour and a half later, he did die of the injuries he sustained,” the spokesman for the Anaheim Police Department, Sgt. Shane Carringer said.
