Fox News weatherman Adam Klotz beaten on NYC subway train
New York Post ^ | January 22, 2023 | Joe Marino, Tina Moore & Jorge Fitz-Gibbon

A Fox News meteorologist was pummeled by a group of teens when he tried to stop them from harassing another straphanger on a Manhattan subway early Sunday, cops and the prognosticator said.

Weatherman Adam Klotz, 37, recounted the vicious attack in an Instagram video, appearing bruised and battered as he described how he was coming home on a train after watching the New York Giants NFL playoff game at a bar when he saw “this older gentleman was being hassled by this group of seven or eight teens.

“I was like, ‘Yo, guys, cut that out.’ And they decided, ‘Alright, if he’s not going to get it, you’re going to get it.’ And boy did they give it to me,” Klotz said. “They had me on the ground. My ribs are all bruised up, too. They got their hits in.”

Police sources said the meteorologist was on a No. 1 train around 1:15 a.m. when he confronted the teens, who may have been smoking weed at the time, too. Adam Klotz.

The young suspects fled the train at the 18th Street station after the assault, but three of them — two 15-year-olds and a 17-year-old — were soon nabbed by cops, sources said.

Police eventually cut the trio loose.

“Juvenile reports were prepared, and their parents were called to pick them up,” a rep for the NYPD said Sunday.

It’s unclear why the three nabbed suspects were released without facing charges.

Klotz was treated for non-life-threatening injuries at Bellevue Hospital.

I lose track of things ... is this considered a crime these days in Democrat-run cities?

Why were they let go and are these criminals facing charges?

Well, there ya go. I guess it’s the weatherman’s fault for trying to be a Good Samaritan. He’s actually lucky he wasn’t knifed.

NYC is a s-hole. Don’t go there. Don’t live there. Don’t work there. Let it rot.

Again, the classic Woody Allen scene. He is a genius, IMHO.

So they can do it again.

Actually, it’s quite clear.
