Boardwalk Empire star Steve Buscemi is punched in the face in a random attack in NYC

The guy who allegedly punched him looks like he's on his way to the gym.

Ugh I hate reading about this. I’ve always liked this actor, ever since his performance as Mink in Miller’s Crossing.

There are much worse people, he worked for FDNY at one time, not to mention being excellent actor. Punch Trump!

Nawwww. This guy has entertained me in so many movies. Doesn't deserve this.

Please don’t let the assailant be … never mind.

Why? He’s a great actor and seems like a genuinely nice guy.

It’s weird as much as I love Steve Buscemi I’ve never found him sexy. That changed when I saw him in Boardwalk Empire in all those suits.

Echoes of the random Rick Moranis attack.

Sixty-something actors, watch your back on the mean streets of NYC!

Good God, who’s going to be next — Jeff Goldblum?

NY Post called the assailant a vagrant. Weird. He doesn’t look like a vagrant. Looks like he works at a gym.

It's ok, Donny. We got help choppering in.

But seriously though, FUCK any piece of shit who would punch Steve Buscemi!

R11. The NY Post has their own definition of 'vagrant.'.

Is it code for old washed up hooker?

How can this be?!? He’s not a hot blonde influencer girl from TikTok!

Aww ... he's getting older and he's such a good guy. Horrible for him. I feel bad for him.

This is for “Grown Ups!”

But he looked at me.

More precisely "Watch out for black men!"

Also today in the big apple

With that face, is it really random?

Steve's eyes were bulging in shock!

I guess NYC is simply not safe for young, hot female influencers and quirky-but-lovable character actors.

That perp will be easy to identify from that photo.

I hope Walton Goggins is safe!

R7 I’m sure the attacker had no idea who he is.

The attacker is one of hundreds/thousands of mentally men who commit about 90% of crime in NYC. For some bizarre reason they are arrested but are out on the streets quickly to hurt someone else. The loon who slashed a young girl in Harlem was a perfect example. While bail reform seemed like a good idea all I can say to its advocates now is please go fuck yourselves. Anyway they’re probably too busy protesting Israel to care about the issue anymore.

..mentally ill…

It may be a sneakerhead.

Steve Buscemi designed sneakers with handles on the back and tiny padlocks that knock against your heels when you walk. Somebody may have had an issue with that.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

Actor Rick Moranis got the same a while back. Both seem to be of smaller stature; I wonder if that translates to 'gay' for certain people? They're not actors who would be recognizable to minorities.

The perp looks like 'homeless trying to pass for Black Urban Professional'. Or PhD candidate on his way to the college library (note the backpack).

You should have seen the other guy!

The NY Post is a daily punch in the face to all of humanity and all that is good in this world

Oh... it wasn't random.

The Post has revised the article and now refers to the alleged attacker as a brute and a maniac. Vagrant has been removed.

I miss vicious slaps.

"Thug" would have been more to the point

The cops at r30 should have let the crowd have him

Black at it again.

I guess you think you're like an authority figure, with that stupid fuckin' blue shirt, huh buddy? King tight-shirt there, big fuckin' man, huh? You know these are the limits of your life, man!

R39 in his white hood, at it again

R13 They sure do lol. I sometimes think these non homeless people who do this shit be smoking PCP and bugging the fuck out.

R31 lol not ‘homeless trying to pass for urban black profesisonal’. I love you cunts on DL.

It could only have improved his looks.

Alec Baldwin next, please!

The perp looks like MANY of the guys who live in RVs parked in WeHo on residential streets. They park outside expensive rent buildings. They are creepy as fuck.

[quote]Both seem to be of smaller stature

This is why Jeff Goldblum is in no danger.

And fuck whoever this guy is for assaulting Steve. DL has your back, Steve.

R46 Have you ever been to NYC. These are no RVs parked outside of expensive buildings on the island of Manhattan. He is most certainly mentally ill or a drug abuser.

There is also the other element…Steve Buscemi has never been known for drugs or even soliciting male tricks right?

It's understandable. The homeless guy thought Steve was actually Timothee.

R46 is a moron.

r48 is a moron.

R51 Please explain what makes me a moron. I’ve never heard any salacious rumors about Steve Buscemi but I’m still throwing it out there because I don’t know much about him AT ALL. This is a gossip site. He is a very low key celeb and I think he is quite talented.

You do realize I was saying the perp is either mental ill or on drugs right.

I blame Will Smith for this crap.

I have alopecia, leave my husband alone!

Are we sure the assailant isn't Paz de la Huerta, pissed off she was fired from Boardwalk Empire? Maybe she gained a bunch of weight and stalked Steve until she had a chance to punch him.

Punched and deleted.

THEY love a peaceful life.

Whet Paz?

My question too, r59. She was such a messy drunk.

I did hear she accused Weinstein of raping her twice, but that was ages ago.

I like Paz Vega! She's the Spanish Penelope Cruz.

Poz de la homeless

Michael Emerson you in danger gurl!

The latest on Paz de la Huerta

Perhaps the accused is an orthodontist tired of hep kids requesting the Mr. Pink grill!

Dlisted used to call her Spaz de la Huerta.

Good lord, that woman still sound like a mess.

But at least she's being productive and making art.

She was unbelievably annoying on that show. I was a big fan of Boardwalk and I had trouble just listening to her voice.

THEY sure do love peace and feces

Paz is looking a lot better these days

They caught the guy.

[quote] Clifton Williams was apprehended after his building supervisor called 911 during a dispute over Williams' property at a homeless shelter in Chelsea. After the 50-year-old claimed some of his belongings had been stolen, officers responded to get Williams' account and recognized him from the wanted pictures.

Quite big tits.

Of all the actors to punch, you probably don't want to go after Buscemi or Gary Sinise. The first responders love those guys and will find you.

[quote]Steve's eyes were bulging in shock!

I was scared they might have popped completely out of their sockets, like those of an elderly chihuahua. The horror!
