Homeless migrant ranting about ‘disdain for female police officers’ beats up cop at Port Authority Bus Terminal

A homeless migrant allegedly pummeled a rookie female cop at Midtown’s Port Authority Bus Terminal Monday morning while seething he hates women who work in law enforcement, according to officials and sources. 

The vicious beat down unfolded after Juan Jose Valencia, 30, mimicked firing a gun with hand gestures at a Port Authority police officer at the entrance of the terminal around 6:45 a.m., the law enforcement sources said. 

When the cop approached Valencia, he allegedly exploded — arguing and telling the rookie he had a knife.

Valencia then allegedly tripped the cop when she tried to cuff him and pounced on her when she hit the ground.

The migrant — who emigrated from Colombia during the pandemic, according to sources — allegedly socked her multiple times while ranting about his “disdain for female police officers.” 

The cop called for back up before trying to arrest the attacker, and when more police arrived, the deranged creep was still punching her while officers tried to yank him away, sources said.

Valencia was finally arrested and charged with assault on a police officer and resisting arrest. 

The early morning assault left the officer hospitalized with multiple injuries. 

It’s not Valencia’s first run-in with crime. 

A warrant was issued after he didn’t show up to court on stalking and intimidation charges in 2022, according to records. 

Valencia was arraigned Tuesday and held on bail. 

His next court appearance is set for Friday. 

Frank Conti, president of Port Authority Police Benevolent Association, decried the attack on a member of the force.

“Monday’s incident in which a rookie, female Port Authority police officer was assaulted by an individual who stated his disdain for female cops is another example of what our officers face,” Conti said in a statement.

“Port Authority cops constantly go into harm’s way to provide a safe environment for the millions using Port Authority facilities daily. I am thankful our officer will recover, and credit her actions for preventing harm to anyone else,” he added.
