NEW YORK (AP) - The New York Police Department is searching for a man who used luggage in an attack on a woman, leaving her with facial injuries.

Authorities say the 63-year-old woman was walking around 10th Avenue and 51st street in midtown Manhattan just after the start of the new year, at 12:01 a.m. on Jan. 1.

Police say a man with a piece of rolling luggage punched her and knocked her down. He then hit her with the bag before leaving the scene.



Authorities released a photo and video of the incident, showing the man punching the woman, who is holding onto another bag, before heading off.
