A high-heeled shoe turned into a weapon during a struggle early this morning that began with a 53-year-old Jersey City man snapping a photograph of a group of women, reports said.

Police were called to Astor Place and Crescent Avenue at 12:32 a.m. on the report that five women were assaulting a man this morning, reports said.

The victim told police that he had parked his car at the corner of Astor Place and Crescent Avenue when he and a 51-year old friend saw five woman approaching, reports said.

The Astor Place resident told police that he told the strangers they “looked good,” and asked them if they were going to a party, reports said.

He then took a picture of the women with his iPhone, but as he was showing them the picture, one of the women snatched the phone and ran, reports said.

The victim said he then grabbed one of the women and told her to call her friend to return his phone, reports said.

He was forced to release the woman during an ensuing struggle after another woman in the group took off her high-heeled shoes and hit him on the back of the head, reports said. The assailant who hit him then dropped the shoes and fled with her friends, reports said.

The woman who had snatched the phone from the victim's hand then returned and said to the victim, “you want your phone? Go get it b____.” before throwing the iPhone down the street, reports said.

The victim gave the police the image that he taken with his iPhone, reports said. A witness provided cops with a picture of a license plate of green Honda Accord parked on Astor Place registered to a Jersey City resident after seeing one of the suspects get in it and drive away, reports said.
