According to police in New York, a shocking video shows a homophobic train rider grabbing a stranger’s hair and ripping some of it out after spitting at him and screaming, “I’m sick of all you f–s.”
As the A train approached the 190th Street subway station in Hudson Heights just before 2:30 p.m. Saturday, the man had sat opposite the 22-year-old victim.
Police say the attacker said to the victim, “I wish I had my pepper spray,” while spitting at the stranger and adding, “I have to start carrying my pepper spray.”
After the deranged stranger spat at him again, the victim stood up – only to be punched several times in the face and head.
One witness recorded as the attacker yanked the victim around the mostly empty subway car by his hair, pausing only to beat him.
