The suspect was last seen running south on Fulton Avenue. The victim was taken to a hospital with a severe laceration to the head. No update on his condition was immediately available early Monday.

Police released surveillance footage of the suspect (above). Anyone with information on him is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
