Woman randomly attacked in Queens
A woman spoke out to FOX 5 about the random attack in Queens that she was a victim of last week. She said another woman began punching her out of nowhere and was forced to use her umbrella to defend herself. FOX 5 NY's Antwan Lewis talked to her about this frightening experience.
New York City has seen a string of random attacks like this in 2024, including in May, when a man was arrested for randomly punching actor Steve Buscemi in the face.
Just last week, D'yan Forest, the world's oldest working female comedian, was randomly punched in the face in the West Village.
