    Some JERK Attacked Rick Moranis in New York City Yesterday

    We are absolutely shocked to be reporting this news, friends. Someone, some absolute idiot jerk, attacked actor Rick Moranis in New York City yesterday. Reports are still scant on information, but as far as we can glean-

    The 67-year old Canadian actor was reportedly “punched in the face,” by an unknown suspect.

    He did check into a hospital, reporting of “pain to his head, side, and hip.” He did file a police report.

    Thanks to The Hollywood Reporter for alerting us.

    Get well, Rick.

    UPDATE

    TMZ just posted security cam footage showing the attack.

    They also report there is currently a $2,500 reward for any information on the attacker.

    UPDATE 2

    We completely agree with Chris Evans, as usual.

    My blood is boiling. Find this man. You don’t touch Rick Moranis. https://t.co/VXBbTjdDwa
