Rick and Morty star Spencer Grammer 'slashed with knife by drunk man'

Rick and Morty voice actress Spencer Grammer has suffered an arm injury after being attacked with a knife while dining out in New York City.

The star, who is the daughter of actor Kelsey Grammer, was at The Black Ant in the city’s East Village when an intoxicated man walked up and demanded to be served, according to reports.

The actress said that she and her friend intervened to prevent things from escalating further before she was attacked by the man.

She told Us Weekly: “My friend and I did what anyone else would do in the same situation.

“Several others, predominantly women, were also attempting to prevent the altercation from escalating.”

“I sustained a laceration on my arm, and my friend was stabbed in the back, but thankfully he suffered no serious internal injuries. We expect to recover quickly.

“We want to thank the first responders and the staff at Bellevue Hospital, who provided us with excellent care. They fought an incredible battle this year. It was very moving for us to have the opportunity to thank them in person.”
