Fuggeddabouddit!
Corona is horrible, and to think it was a nice place years ago
Guy looks a couple of sandwich short of a picnic. Real dumb looking too, probably cant get a job, too stupid, so he steals.
Animals, they are punks.
None of the assaults occurred in Jackson Heights. They were mostly in Corona and a few in Elmhurst. Is it petty to ask that little details like that are correct in a news article like this? I get a Manhattan website making that mistake, but c’mon, you should know Jackson Heights.
Jerks couldnt get jobs so they became theives. Losers
What else is new -.-
Horrible monsters. Piss-poor excuses for human beings
I wonder if all Dunkin Donuts closed at 10pm, would they have caught these perps by now?
Looks like drinking too much Monster Energy drink can be bad for you.
