The family of a Wilmington business owner, who was brutally beaten in a robbery nearly a month ago, is calling for attempted murder charges against the suspect.
Nearly a month after a 68-year-old jewelry store owner was brutally attacked during a mid-morning robbery, his family is speaking out about the day that changed all of their lives forever.
At around 10:40 a.m., Wilmington police say they responded to the 100 block of West 9th Street for reports of a robbery.you can see the suspect, later identified as 39-year-old Calvin Ushery, brutally beat the owner of Solid Gold Jewelers, Chang Suh, inside his store. Steven Suh, the victim's son, and members of the Wilmington City Council, spoke about the robbery on Wednesday during a press conference. Suh described the brutality of his father's beating, and he's calling for more charges against Ushery.
"The perpetrator stomped on my father's head during the course of 25 minutes, delivering his last blows with a hammer. Through the grace of God, my father was able to call 911 and come away from this near deadly encounter alive," said Suh. Solid Gold Jewelers, which Chang's family describes as his lasting legacy, has been in business for nearly 40 years. Before immigrating to the United States, Suh says his father was a stock boy before he opened several of his own businesses.
"He is no longer the same," said Suh. "The person who I respect and admire the most is now handicap and his cognitive abilities are far below normal."
