NEW YORK—Two boys, ages 12 and 13, were arrested Saturday in connection with an assault on former New York Gov. David Paterson and his stepson, police said.
Paterson, 70, and his stepson, Anthony Sliwa, 20, were attacked around 8:30 p.m. Friday while they were out for a walk on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. They were treated at a hospital for minor injuries to the face.
Paterson, who is legally blind, also sustained injuries to his body.
The two boys were both charged with gang assault. Police did not identify them by name because they are minors. Authorities have said at least five people were involved in the attack. They sought help from the public to learn more about the assault….
