Chris Redd says he's OK and 'healing fast' after New York City attack

Chris Redd says he is OK and "healing fast" after a stranger attacked him earlier this week in New York City.

The "Saturday Night Live" alum posted a health update Sunday on his Instagram story and vowed to reschedule "any shows" he missed because of the incident. On Wednesday, an unknown assailant punched the comedian in the face outside the Comedy Cellar in Greenwich Village.

The New York Police Department told The Times on Thursday that Redd sustained a laceration to his face and was transported by emergency medical services to Bellevue Hospital, where he was treated and released. At the time, the suspect had not been identified or apprehended.
