A stranger bashed a 25-year-old woman in the head with a baseball bat in an apparently unprovoked attack in Chelsea this month, cops said as they released the first images of the brute.


The victim was walking on Seventh Avenue near West 23rd Street around 10 p.m. Feb. 8 when the menace suddenly struck her with the weapon, authorities said.


The senseless assault left her with a cut and bruising, and she was taken to Lenox Hill Hospital, where she was listed in stable condition, police said.

The male attacker bashed the victim with a baseball bat on Seventh Avenue near West 23rd Street, cops said. NYPD
Video released late Sunday shows the backpack-wearing attacker clutching the black bat as he sauntered down the street.


He was last seen wearing a black jacket, gray pants, a blue knit hat, and gray sneakers.
