New York City police have released a new video of the man who is accused of attacking a group of cops – and the New York Police Department‘s highest-ranking uniformed member – during a protest on the Brooklyn Bridge.
The NYPD’s Crime Stoppers unit shared the video late Wednesday in a tweet that also announced a reward of up to $2,500 for any information that leads to the person’s arrest.
