‘Boardwalk Empire’ Star Steve Buscemi Punched by Maniac in Random NYC Attack | ||
New York Post ^ | May 12, 2024 | Joe Marino, Valentina Jaramillo, Jorge Fitz-Gibbon It seems no one is safe on the streets of the Big Apple these days – not even beloved hometown actor and Brooklyn native Steve Buscemi. Buscemi, 66, was strolling through Kips Bay last week when a brute walked up and struck the “Boardwalk Empire” star in a broad-daylight attack – one of the latest unprovoked assaults in the five boroughs, law enforcement sources told The Post. The actor suffered swelling to his face and left eye and was taken to Bellevue Hospital for treatment. Meanwhile, his deranged assailant took off and is still on the lam, police sources said. |
Buscemi was seen with a black eye - four days after he was punched in the face last year
Police released a surveillance image from the attack showing Williams, wearing a dark baseball hat, blue T-shirt, black pants, and white sneakers - he claimed there was an 'incident' between him and the actor before the assault.
Buscemi was probably Walking While White, which provoked the poor fellow.
If you must walk the streets of a city that is run 100% by democrats, you have to take massive precautions before you do so and be aware of your surroundings at all times otherwise you could lose your life. Steve is lucky the career feral didn’t stab him in the face instead of hit him.
It’s off-topic, but worth mentioning. Before going into acting, Buscemi was NYC firefighter. And right after 9/11 he went back to his old station and helped with the rescue efforts.
No fuss, no publicity releases. That’s pretty damn impressive.
The only reason we know about this is that a reporter at the scene recognized him.
Well it beats a wood chipper.
A cute girl at a party said to me, “Hey, you look like a movie star.” “Really?, I said. “Yeah!,” she said, “Steve Buscemi.“
Hey Buscemi:
