The NYPD released new clearer images Wednesday of two suspects wanted for a homophobic assault in Manhattan.
The pair are being sought for an attack on two men, ages 31 and 37, on Broadway near W. 29th St. in NoMad about 7:30 p.m. July 31.
The attackers uttered homophobic remarks before repeatedly punching and kicking the victims, police said.
Medics took the older victim to NYU Langone Tisch Hospital with minor injuries. The younger man was treated at the scene.
Both suspects had dark hair and wore dark T-shirts and light-colored sneakers. One sported black track pants with a white stripe down the sides and carried a black bag with two large colored dots on it, while the other man wore blue or gray pants.
On Aug. 7 the NYPD first asked the public’s help identifying and tracking down the suspects, releasing grainier footage of the duo.
The assault is being investigated by the NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
