It’s unclear who Peter Rosello had wanted to view an online video that appears to show him punching a homeless man in the groin, but it’s getting some attention from the Miami Beach Police Department, which told TMZ Thursday that officers want to begin an investigation once they identify the alleged victim.

Rosello, who’s been on The Real Housewives of Miami alongside mother Alexia Echevarria, was apparently in South Beach Monday, where he got someone to record him, saying to the man he’d give him $5 before he hit his crotch and fled.

So far, the not-so-funny “prank” received no comment from Real Housewives reps, and TMZ has not been able to reach Rosello.

Meanwhile, Echevarria told Hollywood Life she got a bad vibe from Real Housewives newcomer Karent Sierra.

“She gave me a very cold greeting so I took it very personally,” she said in September.
