Repeat offender Amira Hunter, 23, was caught on video attacking a cellist in the New York City subway. Judge Marva Brown released her despite the DA asking for bail. Hunter has a history of violence and theft, with seven prior arrests and for skipping court.

Hunter was caught on video whacking Forrest in the head with his own metal water bottle as he performed “Titanium” by Sia Underground on Feb. 13.

“I hadn’t touched my cello since being attacked in the NYC subway … until today,” Forrest revealed in an X post on Wednesday.
Last week, Forrest announced he was suspending his subway performances “indefinitely” and called on the NYPD to protect musicians.
