The 88-year-old composer Alexander Kolker was attacked in St. Petersburg. The incident occurred in an elevator in one of the houses on the Black River embankment in the Primorsky district of the city. This was reported to Izvestia on February 20 by a source.
The footage from the surveillance camera, which came into the possession of Izvestia, shows how a man with a covered face enters the elevator with a knife after the musician. Then an unknown person knocks Kolker to the floor and hits him several times. According to our information, the composer received a hand injury. Now the pensioner does not feel very well after what happened and is not ready to comment in detail on what happened.
“He feels very bad,” the composer shared with Izvestia.
