Man who shot video of the altercation between an SUV driver and a ruthless motorcycle gang last weekend in New York is now receiving DEATH THREATS for cooperating with police

Kevin Bresloff, of Bellport, NY, has been publicly identified as the man who shot the video

His cooperation with investigators has prompted death threats

He initially blamed the video cutting out right before bikers began assaulting Alexian Lien on dead batteries, but then admitted purposely shutting the camera off

The man behind the video of the vicious six-on-one motorcycle gang attack against a technology executive last weekend in New York is receiving death threats.

Kevin Bresloff, of Bellport, NY, has been cooperating with investigators seeking the bikers seen in the video beating Alexian Lien after he ran over a member of the riding group while trying to avoid confrontation. His cooperation has earned threats on his life, he says.

The video was taken from a camera mounted on Mr Bresloff’s helmet and clearly shows how the altercation began, Mr Lien fleeing, the chase, and the SUV’s last stop.

SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO

It began innocently enough: Members of the Frontline Soldiers motorcycle gang out for a Saturday drive on the Henry Hudson Parkway come across a Range Rover

Uploaded to YouTube , the disturbing video quickly went viral. Investigators quickly located Mr Bresloff and enlisted his help tracking down the thugs who smashed in the windows of Mr Lien’s Range Rover and brutally beat him in front of his family.

The video cuts out right before Mr Lien is pulled from the SUV, which Mr Bresloff first told investigators happened because the battery died, according to NBC New York . He soon admitted he intentionally turned the camera off, said the station.

The video starts with the group riding up the Henry Hudson Parkway, on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. Mr Bresloff happens to catch Mr Lien’s SUV clipping a rider, bringing all traffic on the highway to a halt.

Several members of the motorcycle gang, known as the Frontline Soldiers, began to approach the Range Rover, causing Mr Lien to panic and flee.

Likely scared for the safety of himself, his wife and their two-year-old daughter, Mr Lien slams the gas and runs over a member of the entourage – paralyzing him – while he makes his getaway.

Several members of the posse then begin to pursue Mr Lien at a high rate of speed as his SUV barrels up the highway towards the George Washington Bridge.

The Range Rover exits the highway at the 181st street – George Washington Bridge exit, but Mr Lien inexplicably decides to drive local roads uptown instead of try to make it across the bridge before the bikers can catch up to him.

They soon catch up to him, smash in multiple windows and the video cuts out.

Bikers Reginald Chance, Robert Sims and Christopher Cruz have been identified from the video. A fourth suspect is being sought by officials but has yet to be identified.

As many as six off-duty police officers witnessed the attack, an NYPD spokesperson has said at least one has been stripped of his gun and badge – but declined to publicly identify any of the officers involved.

Mr Lien’s six attackers left him with multiple cuts and bruises, but no serious injuries. Mr Chance and Mr Sims are currently in custody after being charged in the attack.

Edwin Mieses, the father of two run over by Mr Lien, is lying paralyzed in a hospital bed.

An investigation into the incident is still ongoing.
