A good Samaritan was struck in the face with a baseball bat while attempting to break up a fight on a Bronx street, resulting in severe head fractures, police and sources reported.

The concerned 31-year-old victim stepped in when he noticed two men fighting around 1 a.m. Friday on East 175th Street near Walton Avenue in Morris Heights, authorities and sources indicated.

But the violence quickly turned towards him, with one of the men pulling out a baseball bat and whacking the do-gooder multiple times, police said.
