BEDFORD-STUYVESANT — A man shouting derogatory comments punched two women outside a Bed-Stuy gay bar, police said.
The victims, ages 34 and 36, were leaving One Last Shag on Franklin Avenue around 2:30 a.m. Sunday when the man attacked them. He yelled "derogatory comments about their sexual orientation," according to the NYPD.
The women were transported to Kings County Hospital in stable condition.
The suspect is described as in his 30s, about 6-foot-4 and 220 pounds.
It was unclear if the attack was being treated as a hate crime, a police spokesman said, adding that the investigation is ongoing.
