Not that there’s a good reason for ever doing this, but why did this person punch him at all?
Probably mental illness.
Not all that unusual to see a guy walking some corner of town, ranting to himself in an agitated state. Social isolation, anxiety, fear, and frustration turning people into human-shaped time bombs just waiting to go off.
First Rick Moranis, and now Steve Buscemi? This is so sad.
I wonder how often this must happen to non-famous people that don’t make the news too.
Rick Moranis hasn’t been famous in decades. And given that he was attacked from behind, its unlikely the attacker knew him. Just some guy lashing out randomly for who even knows what reason.

NYC has one of the highest police budget’s per-capita in the world and Manhattan is one of the most densely surveilled places in the country. I have to assume if cops are too busy crushing candy on their phones, this sort of thing is regular and they don’t give a shit.
