Nearly two weeks after taking a beating from a band of bikers in New York City, SUV driver Alexian Lien remains bruised in the face, reports the NY Daily News.
The 33-year old was photographed for the first time since a highly viewed viral video chronicled his beating which required stitches to treat.
He left his apartment alone and did not make a comment to reporters.

His beating shocked many who have seen the video, but has also drawn attention from the motorcycling community concerned about how biker’s are being portrayed.
Many point out that Lien, in escaping the motorcyclists, ran over three of them, critically injury one who doctors say faces a high probability of being left paralyzed.
Thus it may be a surprise to some that the site Auto Evolution recently came out with a blog explaining why Lien will likely not be charged in the case.
Meanwhile,Facebook pages have sprung up in support of Lien. The likes on one had grown to 22,000.
