Cops are trying to identify the unruly baby-faced teens who trashed an NYPD car in Union Square on Friday when Twitch streamer Kai Cenat’s PS5 giveaway erupted in rioting — a melee that City Hall partly blamed on “outside agitators.”

Police on Sunday released photos of six of the eight troublemakers estimated at between 14 and 18 years old who kicked and jumped on a patrol car during the violent mayhem, which left at least seven people injured, authorities said.

The riot also led to 66 arrests after the mega-social-media influencer’s unsanctioned giveaway sparked the chaos and ended with him being charged with inciting a riot and unlawful assembly — then freed on a desk-appearance ticket.

“We are further looking into where there’s some even outside agitators,” Mayor Eric Adams said Saturday — while also blaming parents for not making sure their kids were not part of Friday’s violence. *** We believe there were some outside influencers that may have attempted to aggravate the situation,” Adams said without elaborating. *** A witness told The Post on Saturday that the popular Manhattan spot “looked like we were under war” when the thousands-strong crowd erupted in violence during the botched giveaway. *** “We are deeply disheartened by the outbreak of disorderly conduct that affected innocent people and businesses, and do not condone that behavior.”

On Saturday, Cenat posted images of the violence online, prompting rebukes from some social-media users. ***

That reminds me. I have to watch Jeopardy.

There isn't a problem here which a wood chipper wouldn't cure.

Who are people that will never be contestants on Jeopardy?

And Nazi Paratroopers flying in from Brazil? I can’t believe how stupid this mayor thinks people are.

One good thing about leftist riots is they do not have to worry about the American Stasi infiltrating their mostly peaceful weekend celebrations.

What a xenophobe.

Give it right back to the left. If his first knee jerk reaction is to blame *outsiders*, then he is xenophobic.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

I have a nagging suspicion that I saw the answer on Wheel of Fortune. That annoys me.

Baby faced teens or baboon faced teens??

Check with the professionals for “outside agitators” ... the FBI is a 24/7 DEI certified supplier.

Teens. Yes.

[arthurus]

As they are Teens they have done most of their “growing up.” They will become druggies and dealers and baby mamas and some will shoot others of them.

[SaveFerris]

(I see no baby faces)

Same here

[arthurus]

They need to smell some grapes.

“Teens” is the press stylebook word for Black Young Thugs.

Eric and Thudball Bragg will blame it on Trump in 3-2-1…

[Shady]

It has been since the death of Apartheid.

[EEGator]

That’s more like it…

[syriacus]

If Obama had sons, would they look like those youths?

[PGR88]

baby-faced? Assume they have attended public schools at all, they’ve had 12 years of victimhood, entitlement and race-hatred training.

They’re practically pros already.
