At approximately 7:24 AM yesterday, beloved Canadian and comedy treasure, Rick Moranis, was assaulted by a random attacker on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. The surveillance video of the attack shows the assailant wearing a black "I (heart) NY shirt" as he passes by Moranis, before randomly striking him, and forcing him to hit the ground. According to a representative for Moranis, the actor sustained some injuries but is "grateful for everyone's thoughts and well wishes."

Earlier this year, Disney announced that Moranis would be returning after a 24-year hiatus from acting to appear in the fourth Honey, I Shrunk The Kids sequel, and thanks to Ryan Reynolds, he turned everyone's 2020 around by appearing in a Mint Mobile commercial. After the video of this vicious attack spread on Twitter, Moranis' name began to trend, thanks to users tweeting their determination to find the criminal responsible for hurting the world's most beloved man. While the attacker may love New York according to his hoodie, it's pretty safe to say that New York and the whole world does not love him back.

Should have known not to subject Rick to the year 2020. Glad to hear he’s okay.

New York is especially not here for it.

If you are the lowlife scumbag who sucker punched Rick Moranis, you better turn yourself in to the cops before the rest of New York City catches up with your ass.

And Keanu Reeves.

John Wick 4 should be Keanu Reeves hunting the guy who punched Rick Moranis

Congress needs to approve immediately.

If we get a 2nd stimulus check I'm spending it on training my mind and body to find and end the man who punched Rick Moranis

We are eternally grateful for this man's health and hope justice is served soon.
