Shocking surveillance footage showed the moment a man threw a brick at the window of a Manhattan gay bar.
The black and white footage showed the man head toward the bar VERS in Hell's Kitchen while bar goers were inside at about 10pm on Saturday night.
It's unclear who the man was, but restaurant owner David DeProlesa said that the windows are shatterproof and the attack was the fourth one this week.
'It feels like yet another manifestation of hate against our community,' DeProlesa told The New York Post.
DeProlesa said that he considered potential hate crimes when he first opened the bar in July and decided to install shatter proof windows.
'It doesn't shatter, but it does crack,' he said.
No arrests have been made in the VERS bar attack - but the perpetrator in the video can be seen running away from the scene and then walking back seconds later.
The hate crime occurred on the same night five people were killed and 25 were injured while at a gay club in Colorado Springs.
