The 37-year-old funnyman had just been dropped off at the Comedy Cellar Wednesday evening to perform a set when a man with brass knuckles decked him “out of nowhere” on McDougal Street, according to cops and sources.

Police released surveillance footage of the masked suspect, who is still at large.

Redd was released from the hospital following the seemingly random attack, which bloodied the steps that lead to the iconic basement club.
