WEST VILLAGE — Seven women in their 20s punched and kicked a 37-year-old woman outside a lesbian bar last weekend, seriously injuring her eye, police said.
The victim was attacked outside Henrietta Hudson at 438 Hudson St. about 4 a.m. on Nov. 9, police said.
Police said the seven women — Jennifer Hall, 25; Malgorzat Branch-Piatkowski, 24; Keisha Blair, 24; Shakima Smith, 22; Tiara Donaldson, 20; Gabriella Rowe, 24; and Jaquaya Clark, 25 — punched the victim in the eye, knocked her to the ground and kicked her over and over.
The FDNY said she was unconscious when an ambulance arrived to take her to Bellevue Hospital.
A doctor at Bellevue told police the victim's optic nerve was damaged, she had cuts on the outside of her eye and her vision was impaired, according to court records. The doctor told police the woman will need surgery and it was not clear whether she would fully regain her sight.
All seven attackers were arrested and charged with felony gang assault in the second degree, officials said.
Bail for all seven women was set at $15,000 bond or $7,500 cash. Hall posted bond one day after arraignment, Donaldson did so two days after arraignment and Smith spent three nights in jail before posting bond.
Brand-Piatkowski, Blair, Rowe and Clark did not post bail and are all still at Rikers Island, records show.
