A crazed homeless man went on a rampage in Manhattan’s Bryant Park Saturday in which he hurled a cell phone at a mother and her infant in a stroller — striking the child in the arm, cops said.
Around 10:00 a.m. Saturday, 49-year-old Marc Okon allegedly targeted the stroller near Sixth Avenue and West 41st Street, striking the baby girl in the left arm with a cell phone and causing visible redness.
