A disturbing video has surfaced online from the US which shows a man hitting a 60-year-old woman over 50 times with her own cane in a Harlem subway station.

The man then struck the woman with her own cane more than 50 times in the head, stomach, leg, arms, back and hands. Moments later, the cane fell apart. The man then started throwing punches and yelling at the woman.

The woman remained motionless on the ground for a few seconds and then the suspect kicked her several times.

According to NYPD sources, the 60-year-old woman did not know the suspect. She was rushed to the nearby hospital where she is said to be in stable condition.

The police said that the suspect fled the scene before cops arrived at the scene. It is unclear how the argument started between them.
