A hunt is underway for the brute who beat a woman while spewing Islamophobic insults outside Barclays Center in Brooklyn, police announced Thursday.
The 34-year-old victim told police the suspect attacked her outside the Flatbush Ave. sports arena near Atlantic Ave. around 10:42 p.m. Wednesday, cops said.
The goon punched her repeatedly in the face and made vile anti-Muslim remarks before hightailing it, according to police. The unprovoked attack left the victim with minor injuries, but she was not hospitalized, cops said.
Investigators with the NYPD’s Hate Crimes Taskforce are looking for a male with a heavy build between the ages of 16 and 20.
Anyone with information that could lead police to the suspect is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stopper’s Hotline at (800) 577-8477.
