"It should go without saying that the complete depravity to human life illustrated in this video is absolutely disgusting and should be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” Costello said in his caption, as he pleaded for the public's help in apprehending the unknown assailant.
Voices can be heard in the video laughing in reaction to the victim's pummeling.
The severity of the incident caught the attention of actor and political activist James Woods, who tweeted: "The thugs are running wild in Democrat cities. Buy a gun. Become well-versed in self-defense laws. Learn to use your weapon with proficiency. Learn gun safety. Take America back."
