00:00 A 30-year-old burril since Monday after they say he attacked four people with a hammer,
00:04 including a woman in Union Square. This surveillance video obtained exclusively by CBS2
00:10 shows the hooded suspect approaching the woman from behind, then striking the back of her head.
00:15 Oh, you don't look like a crystal meth addict.
00:17 Now people are really starting to see how it's used
00:23 in metropolitan areas and specifically among gay men.
00:27 We're seeing meth use among gay men in New York City rise 300-400%.
00:32 It was not until I admitted I was an addict that I really understood addiction.
00:39 What was your primary drug of choice?
00:41 Meth, crystal meth.
00:42 Gonna throw out a couple of old syringes that I probably used on my last relapse,
00:48 just because they shouldn't be in my bag.
00:49 When the DEA came to the door, they still didn't know what was going on.
00:55 They started trying to knock it down.
00:58 So they bust in 10 guys, full swat gear, guns in my head. They cuff everybody.
01:04 It's just such a huge piece of who I am and what's built me and made me and challenged me and hurt me.
01:12 There are addicts everywhere. There are addicts from every walk of life,
01:16 from the gutter to the penthouse.
01:24 A disturbing new video shows a man live streaming himself playing Pokemon Go,
01:28 but ends up capturing his own mugging near Central Park.
01:32 No, no, no, no, no, please.
01:33 The attack happened right after midnight.
01:37 Look in the background. The attacker sneaks up on him, then pounces.
