Peraica has a hot issue

He's demanding investigation of beating of 77-year old man by County Security Guards across the street from Stroger Hospital.  He cites Fox news report, wants:
 
The identification of the security guard, his suspension pending independent investigation, dismissal of charges pending against the beaten man also pending independent investigation, return of cell phone of county employee who videotaped the incident on her phone subsequently confiscated by police,
 
According to a Fox report [nowhere linked], the man was approached by the guard, who asked "if he was a Mexican" and if he "was legal" and was then removed from his car and beaten as he reached for his wallet.
 
He is hospitalized at Stroger hospital with chest pains and puncture wounds.
