Either the Post is trying to rile people up even more or there really is a "Tourist Mugger" on the loose. A woman was assaulted while walking on West 93rd Street at 11AM Saturday morning. The Long Island woman was alone when her head was bashed, but it was 11AM. The attacker took $20 from her purse. The Post says police are determining whether there is any connection to last week's attempted mugging on a Canadian tourist. 11AM. Man... Gothamist hopes this is just another terrible random act and not a tourist mugger. Also, can visitors from Long Island (and New Jersey and Connecticut) really be called tourists?

Depends. Are they fat, slow, annoying, and in the way?
And wearing neon backpacks?
As much as I appreciate the NY Post's attempt to place significance on the most recent attack, let's all keep in mind that in a city of eight million people, these things are bound to happen. Eight more similar attacks in the next two weeks and I'd be inclined to say it's something other than coincidence.
