Steve Buscemi got punched in the face while walking through Manhattan.
Steve Buscemi was walking through Manhattan in broad daylight when he was reportedly punched in the face by a random assailant.
The actor was assaulted in Midtown Manhattan on Wednesday (May 8), making him the latest victim to a string of unprovoked attacks in New York City.
“Buscemi was assaulted in Mid-Town Manhattan, another victim of a random act of violence in the city,” his publicist said in a statement to CNN. “He is OK and appreciates everyone’s well wishes, though incredibly sad for everyone that this has happened to while also walking the streets of NY.”
Police were called to the scene around noon last week, according to the NYPD’s report.
“Upon arrival, officers were informed a 66-year-old male was punched in the face by an unidentified individual,” the report reads, per CNN.
