A hateful attacker knocked a man to the ground in Central Park and spewed anti-Semitic comments before sneering, “Kanye 2024,” cops said.
The 63-year-old victim was walking in the park near the intersection of Terrace Drive and East Drive around 7:30 p.m. Wednesday when a stranger hit him from behind, causing him to fall to the ground, authorities said.
The assailant allegedly made anti-Semitic remarks and declared, “Kanye 2024” — referring to the presidential campaign aspirations of Kanye West, who has come under fire for his recent public anti-Semitic tirades.

The victim suffered a chipped tooth and a broken hand in the attack, and was hospitalized in stable condition, authorities said.
The suspect fled west on 72nd Street on a bicycle with a bicycle trailer, which appeared to be carrying miscellaneous items including a sign that says “Hungry Disabled,” according to cops and photos they released Thursday evening.

He was last seen wearing a brown jacket, beige pants, white sneakers and a multi-colored hat.
