A 14-year-old boy was busted this week for kicking a man in the head during a hate-fueled attack in which his pals called the victim a “cracker,” cops said.
The teen, who was not identified because of his age, was arrested Tuesday and charged with hate crime assault in connection to the April 14 attack on Roosevelt Island, police said.
The trio came up to the 35-year-old victim around 7 p.m. in the back of an apartment complex on Main Street, police said.
The 14-year-old suspect booted the man in the head, according to cops.
At least one of his two accomplices then snarled, “You’re not going to catch me, cracker!” authorities said.
The crew ran into the Roosevelt Avenue F train station, where they were captured on surveillance footage.
The two other suspects had not been caught by Wednesday morning.
The victim suffered some head pain, but did not need to be taken to the hospital.
