A man since identified as a millionaire Wall Street investment banker was caught on video this weekend as he punched a woman in the face during a Pride event in New York City, RadarOnline.com can report.
The shocking incident unfolded on Saturday night in Brooklyn as the New York City borough held an event in Park Slope to celebrate the start of Pride Month.
But the Pride festivities took a startling turn when a man, since identified as investment banker Jonathan Kaye, slugged a woman across the face and sent her crashing to the ground.
“This guy punched me in the face today and broke my nose and busted up my friend’s arm can anyone find him?” the victim posted alongside a video of the vicious attack.
Several bystanders could also be heard calling Kaye an “a------” in the short ten-second clip and telling the “horrible” millionaire Brooklynite to “go f--- himself.”
According to Daily Mail, Kaye, 52, lives in a whopping $4 million four-bedroom townhouse in Park Slope near where the attack unfolded on Saturday night.
It was also revealed that Kaye works as a managing director at Moelis & Company – a popular investment bank and business services franchise located in busy Midtown Manhattan.
A spokesperson for Moelis & Company has since confirmed that Kaye was the assailant featured in the startling video from over the weekend.
The spokesperson also confirmed that an investigation was underway in connection to the incident in Park Slope during Brooklyn Pride on Saturday night.
“We have become aware that one of our employees was involved in a serious incident in Brooklyn on June 8,” the investment bank’s rep said in a statement on Monday morning.
“We take this matter very seriously and are conducting an investigation,” Moelis & Company’s rep added.
It remains unclear whether the NYPD has launched an investigation of its own into the startling attack on Saturday night involving Kaye and the unidentified woman.
