‘Go Back to Your Country!’ Attacker Yells as He Punches Asian Man

A shirtless attacker bit off the tip of an Asian man’s finger in Hell’s Kitchen Tuesday morning — the latest in a surge of anti-Asian hate crimes in New York City this year.

“Go back to your country!” the attacker yelled as he rained punches on the 48-year-old victim on W. 43rd St. and 11th Ave. at about 10 a.m., cops said.

The attacker also bit two fingers on the man’s left hand, police sources said. The suspect’s teeth severed part of the victim’s middle finger {snip}
