Millionaire investment banker Jonathan Kaye is claiming self-defense after being caught on camera punching a woman during a Pride parade in Brooklyn.<\/p>\n
The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that Jonathan Kaye, 52, a Managing Director at Moelis & Company, a global investment bank, was caught on video striking an unnamed woman during a Pride rally in Brooklyn last weekend.<\/p>\n
The video footage, which has since gone viral, shows Kaye delivering a powerful right hook to an unnamed woman, causing her to stumble and fall to the ground. The New York Police Department reportedly has no information on this assault as of yet, according to the\u00a0New York Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n The 10-minute clip posted on social media platform X suggests some form of altercation before the recording. However, it does not provide any context for the events leading up to the exchange.<\/p>\n JUST IN: The man who went viral for punching someone in the face, says he was a victim of four \u201cQueers for Palestine\u201d protesters who allegedly assaulted him.<\/p>\n Moelis & Co banker Jonathan Kaye is claiming he was \u201cattacked\u201d before being caught on film throwing a punch.<\/p>\n Kaye says\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/kdvJcKFKOQ<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) June 10, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n\n According to sources close to Kaye, the confrontation began when Kaye encountered a group of four protesters from \u2018Queers for Palestine\u2019 as he was returning from dinner.<\/p>\n Kaye reportedly warned the protesters that they were \u201con the wrong side\u201d before the situation escalated rapidly. The group allegedly began to taunt Kaye, hurling anti-Semitic insults and throwing a mysterious liquid at him.<\/p>\n \u201cYou could say that he initiated it, but he didn\u2019t,\u201d a source told Daily Mail<\/a>, adding, \u201cHe fell or he was chest bumped, and can\u2019t remember that bit. But he ended up on the pavement with them four over him. He got up and swung at one as he was trying to escape, and then he ran.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou can clearly see in the video, if you slow it down, that he\u2019s wet because they were throwing liquids at him. That video clip is cut and doesn\u2019t show the entire thing. He\u2019s never had one issue in his entire life never been arrested or anything. It was a super anti Semitic attack of four individuals ganging up against one Jewish man. It\u2019s left him completely traumatized.\u201d<\/p>\n Daily Mail<\/a> reported:<\/p>\n They also claim that the footage shows Kaye covered in liquid, with a stain on his back, in the now-viral video.<\/p>\n Pictures obtained by DailyMail.com show Kaye\u2019s clothes soaked in a red liquid, which he believes was Gatorade, and blood pooling around his ankle after he was shoved to the floor.<\/p>\n Kaye was recorded throwing a punch at the unnamed woman during a pride parade in Brooklyn on Saturday evening, although there has not been an official probe launched by the NYPD.<\/p>\n Posters with his face, home address and cell phone number have been plastered in the area close to his $4million four-bedroom townhouse in pricey Park Slope, as neighbors erupted and demanded the father-of-three be arrested.<\/p>\n Defending the banker, who works as a Managing Director at Moelis & Company, a leading investment bank with offices in Midtown Manhattan, the source said the whole thing was \u2018super anti-Semitic\u2019.<\/p>\n Moelis & Company announced that they have launched an internal investigation, according to Bloomberg<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have become aware that one of our employees was involved in a serious incident in Brooklyn on June 8,\u201d Moelis said Sunday in an emailed response to questions from Bloomberg. \u201cWe take this matter very seriously and are conducting an investigation.\u201d<\/p>\n According to Moelis\u2019 website<\/a>:<\/p>\n Jonathan Kaye is a Managing Director at Moelis & Company where he leads the global Business Services franchise.
