So many people recognized the man that he became a target.  According to him he was going to put the money down on an apartment when he was attacked by two men.  They stole the money and left him with a nasty black eye.  He says he only got to spend $20 or $30 before he was robbed and they took all that was left.  It’s sad that people would do such a terrible thing.

Here’s the original video of Broner giving him the money.
