A group of six attacked a man in Brooklyn on Saturday — and one of them cut him up with what’s believed to be a machete, police sources said.

The group of men went after the victim on Fifth Avenue in Sunset Park at about 6 p.m. and slashed him in the hands, according to sources.

The person with the weapon was described as Hispanic man, 5 foot 5, and was last seen wearing a black-and-white button up shirt and baggy pants.

He fled up 48th Street toward Sixth Avenue, police sources said.
