Surveillance video of brutal anti-gay attack released

Here’s the shocking surveillance video of an alleged hate crime in the West Village, where a 26-year-old man was punched by two thugs screaming anti-gay slurs.

Damian Furtch and a friend went to a McDonald’s on West 3rd and Sixth Avenue early last Sunday when they were accosted, police said.

Investigators say they’re looking for two men 18 to 20; the video was released on Wednesday.

“I hope to shed light on the larger issue of violence against my community,” Furtch said in a statement. “This has to stop.”
