Moelis banker resigns from company after video appearing to show him punching a woman at Pride event

Kaye did not immediately reply to a request for comment from BI.

The banker was initially placed on leave shortly after a video showing the incident on June 8 went viral on social media.

The video included text that read: “This guy punched me in the face today and broke my nose and busted up my friends arm.”

A Moelis spokesperson told BI at the time that it was conducting an investigation. In the video, a woman appears to fall down after being punched by a man, who the video’s uploader identified as Kaye. The man can be heard in the video walking away with a stain on the back of his blazer, saying, “she fucking threw shit all over me.”

The punch may have come after Kaye, who is Jewish, told someone at the event holding a Palestinian flag that they were “on the wrong side,” and then had liquid poured on him by four individuals, the Financial Times reported. Kaye apparently fell to the ground and hurt his knee during the incident, the report said.

A police report filed after the incident stated that the woman who was punched lost consciousness when she fell and had a broken nose, lacerations, and a black eye, according to Bloomberg.
