The Black thug launched himself at the defenceless elderly White women and hurled her head into the table by punching her.

Police have arrested one of the two suspects believed to have robbed and assaulted a woman inside an Omaha church last Sunday.

A felony warrant for robbery was issued earlier Wednesday morning for 22-year-old Wayman Clark.

Video of the attack on a 76-year-old woman sparked outrage across the country as surveillance video of the attack went viral.

That video shows the elderly woman make her way through St. Cecilia’s Cathedral to pick up a pamphlet when she was blindsided by two men. One assailant grabbed her purse and the other punched her, knocking her to the ground, gashing her head on the table.

The attack landed the victim in the hospital.

Wayman Clark’s female accomplice has been arrested, along with her mother.

Fr. Michael Gutgsell said, “Of course it’s shocking because we haven’t had anything like that here – at least not in 10 years. And so obviously we prayed for her the next two masses and the parishioners are now concerned. ‘Is it safe? Should I be in the church?’ And we tried to assure them this is a safe place and it was something completely out of the blue.”

Police tell WOWT 6 News that their gang unit recognized Wayman Clark in the surveillance video.

Officer Michael Pecha said, “I just know our gang unit has had previous contacts with him, the most recent being just a few days before this video so he was fresh in the mind of our gang unit officers so when they saw the video they were pretty sure they knew who he was. The tips, the number we got and then the number of tips we got identifying him as a suspect, helped speed up the process.”

Court records show that he has a lengthy list of minor arrests. Now police believe he’s stepped up to a more serious crime.
