Suspect sought in assault on mom with injury to forehead

UPDATED: 10 a.m. Eastern Time Thursday with comments from actress Olivia Munn and new video.

Maggie Kayla Chang says she’s “heart broken and devastated” after she said a man in Queens screamed racial slurs at her mother and then shoved her hard into the ground.

Chang’s says her mother’s head hit the sidewalk so hard she passed out on the needed 5-10 stitches on the forehead.

Doctors worked on her mom at the hospital for five hours before releasing her.

“Hate crime has no place in our community. How you go up against a 5’3 110-115 lbs lady? How no one holds this person down on Main street is another question. Especially in an Asian community. So do your part, find this asshole,” an angry Cheng wrote on Instagram.

ABC7’s Cefaan Kim posted exclusive video of the attack.

One bystander did do his part and stalked the man before he got away.

There are several photos of the suspect in the Instagram post below.

Actress Olivia Munn took to social media to amplify Chang’s plea.

“These racist hate crimes against our elders have got to stop. We’re gonna find this guy. Queens, Internet, please… do your sh*t,” she posted on Instagram.

Munn urged people with information to contact the New York Police Department. Her post has been liked by more than 62,000 people.
