Trump, the leading candidate for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination, has inflamed Latinos by describing Mexican immigrants as “criminals” and “rapists” and saying he would build a wall between the United States and Mexico to crack down on illegal immigration.

The victim in the assault, who is recovering at Boston Medical Center, sustained a broken nose, bruises on his head, and a large bruise across his torso.

Besides the charges for the crime, Steve Leader was also charged with malicious destruction of property after allegedly punching, kicking, and urinating on his cell door.

The brothers each have extensive criminal records, cops said.
