A cab driver remains in a coma, two days after being attacked at a Harlem gas station, as the search continues for his attacker.

Police say a man punched Bekoe Adigun-Bomani in the head at a BP gas station on West 125th Street. They say the attacker then took off in a silver Nissan.

Bomani, a stock broker by day who drives a cab at night to make extra money, was taken to Saint Luke's Roosevelt Hospital.

Family members say they're devastated, and they will not rest until the attacker is caught.

"He is a hard worker and he's a family man," said Dr. Selma Bartholomew, the victim's sister. "He's got three kids, an older daughter, a son and a small child."

"I can't bear to see my son laying there with tubes all over, fighting for his life," said Adigun-Bomani's mother, Jane Bartholomew. "So, that person, whoever you are, we are going to find you. We won't give up because we are a strong family."

Family members say there is a surveillance tape, but it does not show the attack.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-577-TIPS, by texting TIP577 to CRIMES, or by going to NYPDCrimeStoppers.com.
