Mahwah Twins Charged In Hoboken Attack
Pair allegedly attacked three men outside pizzeria.
Twin brothers from Mahwah have been charged with beating two men early Sunday outside a Hoboken pizzeria, authorities said.
Ahmad W. Ghasi and Ahmad Q. Ghasi, 23, were each charged with aggravated assault and endangering an injured victim, authorities said.
Police were called to the scene of a fight outside Hoboken Pizza on Newark Street on Sunday around 2:30 a.m. Officers found two men on the ground surrounded by a large crowd, according to police reports.
One of the men, a 28-year-old man from Wall, in Monmouth County, was unconscious but breathing, police said. The other, a 27-year-old man from Marlboro, also in Monmouth County, was sitting up when police arrived.
The man from Marlboro told police that he too had been knocked unconscious and that the three had been attacked from behind, according to reports.
He also told police that one of the attackers was a male with no shirt, dark skin and dark hair. Two Ghasi twins, one matching the description, were stopped a block away from the scene, police said.
Police officers walked the twins back to the scene, where they were identified as the attackers, according to police reports.
Witnesses said Ahmad W. Ghasi had kicked a man in the face while he was down, and police saw what appeared to be blood on his white Ralph Lauren shoe, according to police reports.
Ahmad Q. Ghasi told police that the confrontation was over a girl.
The brothers were fingerprinted, photographed and released and both alleged victims were transported to Jersey City Medical Center.

Maybe they were on steroids. Most people, even those prone to pesky pugnacious pugilism and or fisticuffs would show restraint in not continue to beat a victim when they were down on the ground. To continue beating someone in that state is not close to even being a normal human being.
Either this duo are sadists or had a bit of roid rage in them. Remember the story about the HPD alleging that some were on steroids when that roid doctor kicked the bucket? I wonder if that was cleared up. Maybe the HPD should be on the juice just to be able to defend themselves against these two persistent pounders of human flesh? Just playing devil's advocate here.

How does a fight get that out of control 2 blocks from the Police Station and on what is probably the busiest “Saturday Night Crowd” street in Hoboken? That should be the story here!
…the lack of or the outdated deployment of our police force…

That was reported as "Ahmed Ghiasi, 19".
Very similar first and last name - but 4 years younger. Don't know if related - the first name is certainly very common in that culture (because it's an alternate name for the prophet Muhammad), don't know if the last name is equally common.
PS: Curious that "Infidels" have to fear for their lives for books, cartoons, etc. which supposedly dishonor the phrophet - but every day there are "believers" using his name and whose ACTIONS dishonor the prophet in FACT, without suffering the same consequence by their peers.

People please, you are looking at this the wrong way. It has nothing to do with the deployment of police; it has everything to do with how the kids are being raised today. They have no respect for their parents, how do you expect them to have respect for anything or anyone else, I hear how kids talk to parents today, if I talked to my parents the way I hear kids talk today, I would have had my head handed to me.
How the police let them go is amazing to me. I know one thing for sure, if I pulled a stunt like that and got caught, I would be safer in jail then having to deal with my parents, my father especially.
When I was 18, my father had a little talk with me, he said, your 18, your going to go out with your friends, your going to do stupid things, I was 18 and I did stupid things, do yourself a favor, don’t do anything real stupid, and if you do something real stupid, don’t get caught, because if you get caught don’t waste your one call on me
The thing today is kids are spoiled, parents defend their kids in school, it is a different world.
Another thing, those twins could not of been that bright, once you win the fight, you get out of their, you don’t wait for the police show up, they were begging to get caught.
