Women sucker-punched on NYC streets reveal their shock, fear with at least one attacker still at large
NY Post ^ | March 27, 2024 | Jesse O’Neill

A series of young women have revealed they were sucker-punched at random on the street in Manhattan in a worrying series of attacks — with at least one perpetrator still at large.

Mikayla Toninato, 27, told The Post she was frozen in shock when she was punched in the face by a man over six feet tall on the corner of 14th Street and Fifth Avenue on Monday at 2 p.m. moments after she left her class at Parsons School of Design.

“I didn’t see him coming at all. I screamed out of shock. He knocked my head back so hard I just kind of like gasped and screamed,” she told The Post Wednesday of sending a text to her friend at the time of the attack.

“I was frozen with fear. I was pretty paralyzed and I just stood there trying to figure out what happened,” Toninato, who moved to New York from Los Angeles in August to pursue a career in fashion, told The Post.

Toninato is one of a string of women who have been randomly punched in the face by strangers while walking in New York and on their cell phones.

On Wednesday 40-year-old Brooklyn man, Skiboky Stora, was arrested and charged with assault for allegedly punching influencer Halley Kate Mcgookin in the face while she was walking along West 16th Street and Seventh Avenue on Monday.

But at least one other perpetrator — and possible more — are still on the loose.

Days earlier on Saturday, March 23, a 25-year-old woman reported she was slapped in the forehead by an individual at West 42nd Street and Seventh Avenue, an NYPD spokesperson told The Post.

No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.

We’re sorry, but the DA is too busy trumping up bogus charges against President Trump for his Dem masters to deal with your petty allegations. Deal with it...

But Robert DeNiro said yesterday crime and violent attacks are down in NY City.

Does that mean we shouldn’t believe him because he is a piece of something that should have been flushed down a toilet years ago?

Just askin’.

RE: Who does she vote for?

Like me, some of us process everything going into our minds through a filter of politics.

I first realized that about myself when I heard Pat Buchanan’s sister Bay say that.

Skiboky Stora is a sucker-puncher that they caught.

Skiboky Stora, 40, is accused of targeting people he believed were white, female or Jewish. - re: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/28/nyregion/skibody-stora-hate-crimes-random-attacks.html

“punched in the face by a man over six feet tall”

I wonder if she reported him as a “black” man.
