New York: Police hunt for 6 suspects over anti-gay subway assault
The New York Police Department (NYPD) are looking for six suspects in connection with an assault on a gay subway passenger that happened earlier this week.
One of the women had taken pictures of the pair while her companion called them names.
When Mr Frankelly asked her to stop, it set off an anti-gay tirade that led to the man and his partner being assaulted.
No other passengers stepped in to help, although the two were later able to escape at the next stop.
On Friday, NYPD said all six suspects are believed to be in their early 20s.
No arrests have been made so far.
