   Charges have been filed in the case of a 75-year-old man who was savagely   
   beaten following a confrontation on a Metro Transit bus this week.   
      
   On Friday, Leroy Davis-Miles, 23, was charged with first-degree assault in the   
   attack, which happened Wednesday afternoon near the Chicago-Lake Transit   
   Center in Minneapolis.   
      
   Before the assault, the victim had asked Davis-Miles and his friends "to not   
   be so loud" on the bus, after which they threatened to "beat him when he got   
   off the bus," according to a news release from the Hennepin County attorney.   
      
   Prosecutors say the group got off at the same stop as the victim and caught up   
   with him a short distance away, where Davis-Miles "walked up to him and   
   punched him once."   
      
   The older man fall backward and hit his head on the pavement.   
      
   Now, the victim is clinging to life with a serious brain injury, and according   
   to the release, "may not survive."   
      
   Following the attack, prosecutors say, "Davis-Miles and one of his companions   
   shook hands in a congratulatory manner and then several of them rummaged   
   through the unconscious man’s pockets."   
      
   The suspect was tracked down with the help of surveillance footage and facial   
   recognition software and arrested at his Minneapolis home on Thursday.   
      
   His first court appearance is on Tuesday.   
      
   As the Star Tribune notes, should the victim die, Davis-Miles would face more   
   serious charges.
