A 30-year-old Cambridge man called police after he was reportedly punched in the face by an unidentified homeless man in Porter Square.

The man told police that on June 3, around 5:30 a.m., he said “Good morning” to a man who was approaching him. In response, the man reportedly said, “What did you say to me? I hate homosexuals.” The suspect then allegedly hit the man in the face.

The alleged victim said he tried to take a picture of the suspect with his cellphone, but the suspect had fled the scene before he could. The man, who had a bloody lip, told officers he has seen the suspect before, but had never interacted with him.

The suspect was described as a skinny, homeless black man between the ages of 30 and 40, wearing a dark grey sweatshirt, dark jeans and sneakers.
