Police released a photo on Tuesday of a man accused of saying anti-gay slurs and attacking two men in Brooklyn on Sunday.

The suspect approached the first victim, a 34-year-old male, inside Crown Fried Chicken on Fulton Street in Bed-Stuy at 5 a.m., police said. He slashed the man on the left side of his face.

The suspect then stabbed the second victim, a 24-year-old male, in the torso and slashed him on the shoulder, police said.

In both cases, he uttered anti-gay slurs while he attacked the men, police said.

The victims were treated at area hospitals and later released.
