    Last week in New York City, actor Steve Buscemi, a native New Yorker celebrated for his roles in “Boardwalk Empire,” “Fargo,” and “Reservoir Dogs,” was the victim of a senseless assault, as confirmed by his publicist.

    This incident unfolded in the bustling neighborhood of Kips Bay on May 8th, around midday. Despite initial reports not mentioning Buscemi by name, the New York Police Department swiftly responded to a distress call reporting the assault. Details emerged that Buscemi, aged 66, had been punched in the face by an unidentified assailant in front of 369 3rd Avenue.

    The aftermath of the assault saw Buscemi being rushed to Bellevue Hospital to receive treatment for injuries to his left eye, which included bruising, swelling, and bleeding. While Buscemi is physically on the mend, his publicist conveyed his appreciation for the outpouring of well wishes from fans and the public.
