DETROIT (WXYZ) - Cortez Hawkins, suspected in Monday's beating of a Vietnam veteran, has been a wanted man and flying under the radar for a decade, according to court records.

The beating was caught on surveillance cameras at the BP Gas station located on Seven Mile near I-75.

On Friday, Hawkins, 32, was arraigned on two counts of Assault with Intent to Do Great Bodily Harm.

When Hawkins appeared in court, it was revealed that he had skipped out on a 2003 criminal case with charges that included Felony Firearm and Carrying a Concealed Weapon.

Two other men are also facing similar charges in connection with the beating of the 64-year-old veteran and his 58-year-old friend.
