The alleged attack occurred near Bond Street and Broadway in the Greenwich Village during the second consecutive night of demonstrations in the area that led to 18 arrests, police sources said.

The NYPD tweeted out a photo of the chain with the message: “Violence – in any form – is unacceptable. We will be reviewing this incident, and bring any additional perpetrators to justice.” Meanwhile, Public Advocate Jumaane Williams and members of the press were shoved by police during another Lower Manhattan clash on Thursday night.
