Yikes: The Daily News reports "Cops were hunting a man in an orange vest who bashed a woman in the head with a baseball bat on the Upper West Side. Police were called to W. 81st St. between Columbus and Amsterdam Aves. about 4:20 p.m. Tuesday"—that's right by the Museum of Natural History—"They found a woman bleeding from the head." The woman was conscious after the attack and said her attacker was in his 30s. It's unclear if the attack was random.
