June 30, 2021 Dane Kane USA

An intruder at a Queens apartment building punched a doorman — fracturing his face — when he ordered him to leave, disturbing new video shows.

The 69-year-old doorman found the suspect in the basement of the building on 68th Drive near Queens Boulevard in Forest Hills — where he did not live — around 9:20 p.m. Saturday, cops said.

The man refused to leave when the worker asked him to, cops said.

Instead, he followed the doorman into the elevator up to the first floor.

The footage, released by police Wednesday, shows the suspect opening a door, walking inside and closing the door. When the doorman opens the door, the man socks him in the face, sending the worker falling to the floor, the clip shows.

The victim suffered pain and bruising to his face and initially refused medical attention but later sought treatment at Flushing Hospital Medical Center for a facial fracture.

The New York City Police Department is asking for the public's assistance in ascertaining the whereabouts of the unidentified male who is seen in the attached photo and video and is sought in connection with an assault within the confines of the 112 Precinct. Details are as follows: It was reported to police that on Saturday, June 26, 2023 at 2118 hours inside of 104-21 68 Drive, the victim, a 69-year-old doorman, encountered in the basement an unidentified male non-resident, whom he asked to leave. The unidentified male followed the victim into the elevator and, on the 1st Floor, punched the victim in his face, knocking him to the ground. The unidentified male fled on foot. The victim suffered pain and bruising to his face and initially refused medical attention. He subsequently sought treatment at Flushing Hospital Medical Center for a facial fracture. A photo and video from the incident location is attached and available at DCPI.
