According to his publicist, actor Steve Buscemi is doing alright after an unfortunate encounter on the streets of New York City this morning. The 66-year-old, known for his roles in Fargo and Boardwalk Empire, was reportedly punched in the face by a man in Manhattan. He was promptly taken to a nearby hospital for treatment, as he suffered bruising, swelling, and bleeding in his left eye.
In a statement released on Sunday, Buscemi's publicist shared, "Steve Buscemi was assaulted in Mid-Town Manhattan, another victim of a random act of violence in the city." The incident, which occurred late on Wednesday morning, was first reported by the New York Post. The New York Police Department also confirmed the assault, without disclosing the victim's name.
Fortunately, Buscemi's representative has reassured fans that he is doing okay and is grateful for all the well-wishes. However, this is not the first time the actor has faced violence in the city. In March, his co-star from Boardwalk Empire, Michael Stuhlbarg, was hit in the neck with a rock while walking in Central Park. Stuhlbarg immediately chased after the perpetrator, who was later taken into custody outside the park.
The police have yet to make any arrests in Buscemi's case and the investigation is still ongoing. However, it is disheartening to see such senseless acts of violence occurring in the city. This incident serves as a reminder to everyone to always be aware of their surroundings and to stay safe.
