A series of women have posted alarming TikTok reports about being randomly punched by a stranger while walking in New York, including at least two daylight attacks reported to cops this week.
Halley Kate, an influencer who has 1.1 million followers on the platform, posted a video Monday after one attack being investigated by the NYPD, saying it caused her to fall to the ground and black out.
“You guys, I was literally just walking, and a man came up and punched me in the face,” Kate said through tears in a post on Monday morning.
“Oh my God, it was so bad, I can’t even talk.”
Kate did not specify when or where the alleged incident happened. Her video recounting the ordeal appeared to be shot on 7th Avenue between West 15th and 16th streets in Chelsea.
In follow-up videos, she said she called the police and was icing a large “devil horn” bump on her head.

No description of suspect.
The Knockout Game continues.
I don’t get it. Were they attacked because they use TikTok?
“Knockout game” is one of the names given in the United States for assaults in which a person (with others acting as accomplices or lookouts) attempts to make an unsuspecting victim lose consciousness with a single sucker punch.

Thomas Sowell, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, wrote in the New York Post, “Many aspects of these crimes are extremely painful to think about, including the fact that responsible authorities in New York seem to have been caught by surprise, even though this knockout game has been played for years by young black gangs in other cities and other states, against people besides Jews—the victims being either whites in general or people of Asian ancestry.”
Sowell adds: “The main reason for many people’s surprise is that the mainstream media have usually suppressed news about the knockout game or about other and larger forms of similar orchestrated racial violence in dozens of cities in every region of the country. Sometimes, the attacks are reported, but only as isolated attacks by unspecified ’teens’ or ‘young people’ against unspecified victims, without any reference to the racial makeup of the attackers or the victims — and with no mention of racial epithets by the young hoodlums exulting in their own ‘achievement.’
“Despite such pious phrases as ’troubled youths,‘ the attackers are often in a merry, festive mood. In a sustained mass attack in Milwaukee, going far beyond the dimensions of a passing knockout game, the attackers were laughing and eating chips, as if it were a picnic. One of them observed casually, ’White girl bleed a lot.’”
more black on white hate crimes, covered up by the media, I am guessing
Cool.

He couldn’t have known they were on Tik-Tok, so it’s because they were white and female.

“I was literally like leaving class, I turned the corner and I was looking down and I was looking at my phone, and like texting, and then, out of nowhere, this man just came up and hit me in the face,” she said.

“I literally got punched in the head on the sidewalk. He goes, ‘Sorry,’ and then punches me — in the head,” Brand said, in a video of her walking down a street.

I literally need to sign up for TikTok so I don't like miss out on all this influencer drama.
No they were attacked because they were young white women
TikTok is just the platform they used to talk about it
It could have been instagram or X (twitter)
Adams fault.
Sue him and get him locked up.

My point.
Why is the NYP focusing on their mode of communication? TikTok has nothing to do with the story.
I think he may have just been pointing out that they left themselves vulnerable by being distracted by social media.

Maybe it's time to change what they're wearing in NYC because it's becoming a "no-go" zone and the cops can't do anything to protect you.
Avoid places where packs of Nuffins can be found - and if you can’t, head on a swivel and weaponed up.
What it means is that they have a platform from which to relate their experiences. This means the NYPD has to address it to some extent, as opposed to the likely thousands of others who’ve experienced the same thing, but can only tell friends and family.
