A man out on a drive with his family on his wedding anniversary was beaten and slashed by a mob of motorcyclists in upper Manhattan this weekend.
Alexian Lien, 33, of lower Manhattan, was the target of a mob of bikers when he accidentally hit one who cut him off on the Henry Hudson Parkway, according to the New York Daily News.
Lien stopped and pulled over initially but pulled away after 20 to 30 bikers began damaging his SUV.
As he pulled away, Lien called 911, but also hit two other bikers according to NYPD Commissioner Raymond Kelly.

The bikers finally caught up to Lien when he exited the parkway in Washington Heights and was tuck at a red light. His vehicle was slowed down during his drive by his slashed and flattened tires.
"They had been riding all over the city being a menace," said Cynthia Williams, 59, of Harlem, who saw a pack of bikers around an hour after the attack on Lien.
"They went up on the sidewalk. It was just so many of them that they took up the whole street."
No arrests were immediately made in the attack on Lien.
Video taken by one of the bikers with a helmet camera showed one of the bikers bashing in the driver's-side window of Lien's Range Rover. Another could be seen pounding on the rear window where Lien's daughter was in her car seat.
Police confirmed that Lien, a director at Skrill.com, was punched and slashed in the face with a knife during the attack.
The bikers left the scene before police could show up, according to Kelly.
Several videos of the gruesome incident have gone viral on YouTube.
