The Pride flag was apparently set on fire at around 1:40 a.m. at The Little Prince restaurant in SoHo.
The tongue in cheek phrase is believed to have set someone off, as a worker said he saw someone get out of a car and light the flag on fire.A worker also told Eyewitness News that just a few months ago, someone stole that same flag.
"To be a part of it, and to witness it, and to work here and to have that happen, like this is my job. This is where I make money and this is also where I have a home," the employee said. "So to have that taken away, I'm confused and I'm hurt, and I don't know how to feel about it."The NYPD says they are still searching for the arsonist.
