NEW YORK, NY – A man in New York was attacked by a mob of teenagers for wearing a ‘Make America Great Again’ hat.

Jahangir Turan, a 42-year-old New York City art gallery owner, told police he bought the hat Tuesday, according to NBC.

Turan told CBS New York he was walking on Canal Street near Greene Street shortly before 7 p.m. Tuesday while wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat when he was roughed up by more than a dozen teens, who cursed at him as they confronted him.

The kids shouted “F–k Trump” during the attack.

Turan, who bought the hat earlier that day, said he suffered a broken cheekbone and a black eye.

He didn’t go to the hospital after the alleged attack, but did show up with a bruised and swollen face at a news conference Thursday.

“I love President Trump, I think he’s doing a great job, it’s just sad because to get beat up like this, for wearing this type of hat, it’s just — you know, this is America, you know? Everybody has their right,” Turan said.

Turan also said that the teenagers yelled “(expletive) Trump” before attacking him. He spoke at a news conference on Thursday, wearing the hat and appearing with bruises and swelling on his face. He said 15 to 18 people were involved in the attack.

“One girl flipped my hat, and within five to eight seconds, I got pushed from the back of my face, and my face hit the scaffolding pole. I got startled, I walked away,” he said.

Turan said he called the police, but is upset that they have not made any arrests.

“It’s kind of ridiculous to get beat up like this for wearing a hat,” he said.

Turan said he bought the hat at Trump Tower that day, but now plans to keep it at home, believing that “it’s dangerous to wear a hat like this in New York City.”

This isn’t the first time that wearing a MAGA hat in public has proven controversial.

In April, two men in their 20s were arrested in Maryland for allegedly harassing, robbing, and assaulting a man wearing the hat. After the attack, the two men were later found hiding among kids playing basketball.

No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.
