There are still a few good Samaritans left, even in a place as cynical as New York City. When Denis Goncharov saw a violent pervert menace a mother and her two small children in Hudson River Park, he heroically intervened, while others passively recorded with their phones.

From the New York Post:

As a dad of two grade-school-age girls himself, Goncharov, 33, says he didn’t think twice about leaping between a terrified family and a deranged man who had walked up to their park bench last week and starting masturbating.

Goncharov chased the creep for more than half a mile through Greenwich Village to help cops catch him — even after the still-exposed man picked up a brick from the ground and ran at his head with it.

The maniac also called Goncharov “white trash” and spit on him. He was identified as 34-year-old Justin Merritt.

Merritt has a long misdemeanor rap sheet — mostly for criminal possession of stolen property, trespassing and turnstile jumping, but with at least one aggravated harassment arrest thrown in, law enforcement sources said.

To this lengthy résumé, police added lewdness, harassment, menacing, and criminal possession of a weapon. Thank goodness the public will be safe from Merritt for a while.

Hold on — I forgot this happened in moonbat-ruled New York:

At Merritt’s arraignment in Manhattan Criminal Court the next day, he was assigned a lawyer from the New York County Defender Services and a judge had no choice but to release him on his own recognizance.

Fumes Goncharov:

“The law is completely letting down innocent, law-abiding citizens. Shootings, burglaries and violent crime are off the charts — and is it any wonder?”

Elections have consequences. The consequences of electing Democrats are becoming catastrophic.
