TOLEDO, OH -- A pattern of violence against bicyclists.

This past Tuesday, Robert Brundage died after being attacked while out riding his bike.

Then Thursday, another upstanding older Toledoan was assaulted on his bike.

Andy Chermak's story at first seems similar to Dr. Brundage's.

But Chermak was not as seriously injured and was not even robbed.

In fact, what is so shocking about Andy Chermak's story is that it was an act of aggression for no real reason!

"Bam, first thing you know I'm hit from behind and then sprawling in front of the car," said Chermak.

Andy was on his way home from a 37 mile bike ride when he apparently crossed paths with the wrong car.

The occupants were upset he was on the road and spit on him.

When he told the driver that was terrible behavior, one or more passengers got out and assaulted him.

"I got a roundhouse kick to the kidneys," said Chermak.

Chermak has some bruises and injured pride but it is the aggressive pattern towards cyclists that really has he and his wife upset.

"Of course I was just first shocked and then outraged that this was happening again," said Shelley Green.

What particularly concerned that the attack was solely about violence.

"I always tell Andy if they want your bike just say 'have a nice day' and give it to them, but in this instance, they didn't even want the bike they were just aggressive and were looking for a target," said Green.

The incident is forcing Chermak to take routes where he feels safer.

"It is a shame that he has to make any kind of compromise. That he can't ride all over the city," said Green.

But he is definitely not getting off his bike for good.

"I'm not going to let that stop me," said Chermak. "I'm not going to let these kids stop me. I have every right to bet out there."

The couple is still fighting to make sure the suspects face consequences for their actions.

Right now the police are stuck because the license plates of the car did not match the description of the vehicle.

If you have information that can help call police.
