Police responded around 7:45 p.m. ET Sunday to a “call of an ******** in progress in the vicinity of 90th Street and East Drive” near the reservoir in Central Park to find a man, 55, who “was struck in the head by an unknown object.”

“A preliminary investigation determined that a 27-year-old male threw a rock, striking the victim in the back of the neck, causing an abrasion,” the New York City Police Department said in an email to CNN on Monday.

“The victim chased the 27-year-old male to the front of 9 East 91st Street where uniformed officers took the 27-year-old male into custody without further incident. The victim refused medical attention at the scene,” NYPD added.

A law enforcement official confirmed Stuhlbarg was the victim hit with a rock to CNN on Monday.

CNN has reached out to representatives for Stuhlbarg.
