NEW YORK -- A Chelsea radio host suffered a severe beating while visiting family in the Bronx over the weekend.
Pelagio De La Cruz, 52, is fighting for his life in a New York hospital.
Surveillance video captured a suspect brutally attacking Pelagio De La Cruz with a baseball bat.
De La Cruz, the host of the "Hispanic Connection" a daily talk show on WESX/1230AM in Chelsea, was trying to enter a residential building, buzzing the front door's intercom when the two men crept up behind him.
According to the surveillance video, after De La Cruz entered the building a suspect approached him from behind and started beating him with the bat. A second suspect enters and steals the victim's wallet.
New York police are hoping anyone who sees the surveillance video will recognize the two suspects.
Anyone with information is asked to contact New York Police.
