John Hademan assaulted
An ambulance attended Hademan after he was assaulted and then took him to Harlem Hospital, according to the report in the New York Times and the lists of the injured in the New York Evening Journal, New York Herald Tribune, and New York American. However, he did not appear in the hospital records. Those lists, and that in the New York Post, noted that no address was given for Hademan. The Daily News identified him as a resident of Castle Point in the Bronx, but that story was likely not reliable as it did not identify his race, was alone in not recording his injury as lacerations of his face and head, and spelled his name differently than the other reports. As with all the Black men assaulted during the disorder, no one was arrested or charged for assaulting Hademan.
