A decorated Delta Force vet suffered serious head injuries after being slammed in the head with a brick by an unhinged vagrant with a rap sheet in an unprovoked broad daylight attack. Hero vet Mark Antal, 54, was standing outside an East Village pilates studio waiting for his young daughters when 44-year-old James Lawson began screaming for him to get off “his street” shortly before 11:30 am on Sunday, according to police and sources. Lawson then allegedly lunged at Antal and the two got into a scuffle — with the deranged maniac allegedly picking up a brick and slamming it into the victim’s head, police said.
