MANHATTAN - Yet another woman was punched in the face during a random attack in Manhattan. Cops said the latest attack does not appear to be linked to the wave of women who shared their assault stories in TikTok.


The NYPD released surveillance video of the latest sucker punch attacker. This suspect was seen wearing a hoodie with the logo of Stitch from Disney’s “Lilo and Stitch.” He also wore a Yankee Jersey on top of the hoodie.


At around 4:30 pm on March 20, a 33-year-old woman was walking in front of 32 Union Square East. Cops said a man ran up behind her and punched the woman in the face.


The attacker then ran northbound on Park Avenue. 


The victim sustained minor injuries but refused medical attention, cops said.


The suspect is described as a male with a medium complexion and medium build and a beard. 


Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/ or on Twitter @NYPDTips. 


All calls are strictly confidential.
