Chris Redd reportedly undergoing surgery for injuries sustained in New York attack

Chris Redd is reportedly scheduled to undergo surgery Tuesday for injuries he sustained last month during an attack in New York City.

The "Saturday Night Live" alum is undergoing a procedure to repair his nose after a stranger punched him in the face outside the Comedy Cellar in Greenwich Village, TMZ reported. An initial police report noted that Redd suffered a laceration to his face during the incident on the night of Oct. 26.

Citing anonymous sources, TMZ reported that the surgery will involve breaking Redd's nose and letting it heal back into the correct position. The entertainer's attacker reportedly shattered one of the bones in his face into three pieces by punching him with brass knuckles.
