The New York Post reports tonight: singer Gavin DeGraw was attacked early this morning on East 6th Street near 1st Avenue. He had apparently just left some friends, around 4 a.m., after having drinks in the neighborhood when the incident happened.
Police say DeGraw was beaten by several people — but the reason is unclear (the motive was evidently not robbery). After the ordeal, DeGraw began walking uptown and was struck by a cab at 19th Street and 1st Avenue. This evening, DeGraw remains at Bellevue Hospital, where he has a broken nose and cuts on his face.
DeGraw, 34, and his brother own a club, the National Underground on East Houston Street. This summer he has been opening for Maroon 5 and Train.
