A 22-year-old Asian American man was headbutted on Steinway Street in Astoria Tuesday night in an unprovoked bias attack, police said.

The victim was outside 34-27 Steinway St. at around 9 p.m. when he was approached by an unknown man who allegedly hurled anti-Asian statements at him and then headbutted him without provocation.

The alleged racist then fled the location, while the stunned 22-year-old suffered a chipped tooth. The victim did not require medical attention at the scene.

The NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force is investigating this incident. Police released photos of the suspect.

Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/ or on Twitter @NYPDTips.

The vast majority of hate crimes against Asians are committed by blacks. Its an inconvenient fact for the Leftist narrative and that’s why the issue is never seriously addressed.

Another stable abel strikes again. Whatever happened to the millions of dollars that Chirlaine (DeButt head’s wife) was given by hubby to help the mentally ill? Not to mention her salary for obviously doing nothing?

Twenty people indicted in Queens-based $4.6M vehicle theft ring after three-year probe: DA

Twenty individuals were indicted and variously charged in a wide-ranging scheme to steal cars in Queens, throughout New York City and its suburbs, following a three-year investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office, the NYPD, and the New York State Police dubbed “Operation Hellcat,” into the criminal enterprise based in Queens.
