NEW YORK (CNN) -- A 90-year-old Holocaust survivor was found strangled Thursday in his Upper East Side apartment, a spokeswoman for the New York City medical examiner said Friday.

Felix Brinkmann, a native of Latvia, escaped death for a year while he was in the Nazis' Mauthausen, Ebensee and Auschwitz concentration camps. Five times he had been slated for the gas chambers, but each time he used his fluency in German to talk his way out.
After the war ended, he was stunned to discover that his wife, who had also been shipped to Auschwitz, was alive and well in Poland.
The Brinkmanns immigrated to America, where Felix spent years in the bar and nightclub business, co-founding in 1971 Adam's Apple disco in Manhattan.
In recent years, he had served as the real estate manager of a mixed-use building in the Bronx, working "seven days a week, without fail," said his son Rick Brinkman, who spells his last name differently than his father.
On Thursday, the building's superintendent grew concerned when Brinkmann did not show up to work. He notified Brinkmann's son and received permission to enter the father's apartment, where he had lived alone since his wife died last year.
Brinkmann's body was found lying face down in his bedroom, his hands bound, his body showing blunt-force trauma wounds, police said. Brinkmann's blue 2009 Honda Civic may have been stolen and a safe in his apartment tampered with, police said.
A police spokesman said authorities were looking for "a man and a woman" in connection with the homicide.
Rick Brinkman speculated that the killing was random in nature. "Anybody who knew him really liked him," the son said. "He was not the kind of guy who had enemies."
:(
They should arrest all known living KZ guards.
Martinus is guilty.

These two statements seem to be contradictory.

These two statements seem to be contradictory, too. I bet it was someone who knew he had money.

Well I guess that removes them as suspects. Everyone knows Latvians are to lazy to go across town to kill the one that got away.

You seem one of the more reasonable people around here, I will have to keep my eye out for you.
So he "survived" the "concentration camps" because he managed to "talk his way out of being gassed" and "miraculously" his wife "survived" aswell.

I don't think there are any consulates on the UWS. All the ones I can think of are on the east side.

:rolleyes:
I was 13 and I gave them maybe 15 bucks to go away so that I wouldn't have to threaten violence or run. Honestly ,a bunch of fucking third graders, there's really not much you can do, especially in plurality black neighborhood. You'd be the angry, white, 6'3, 300 pounds (I was overweight) racist 13 year old. :rolleyes:
..... You suck it up and start walking away. Then if they keep fucking with you, they get pounded. Profit!
