It dose not matter if he is legal and what nationality he is . He is an asshole. He needs to be caught arrested and put in jail. PERIOD
These dirt bags are asking for another subway vigilante.
I see cops at 74st Station texting on their phones and just hanging out . NYPD needs to be more proactive.
Uphold the law , enforce the rules and incidents like these won’t happen.
NYPD needs to walk the streets, they should be on foot patrol
That’s a nice clear photo of him. He’ll only serve a year in jail if that. If he’s not legally in the US, he should be tried, charged, and released from the country with a suspended sentence, if he reenters the US, he should be immediately detained and his sentence tripled. US immigration policy is way too permissive. We have people overstaying student visas for years. Easy way to fix that, is fine the school $1,000 a day if someone overstays their student visa.
He looks like an american white guy. i odnt know where al this legally talk is coming from.
Hey Anonymous! Try reading, “The suspect is described as a Hispanic…” doesn’t sound like what you’re calling “an american white guy”
His legal/illegal status is unknown. And for pc reasons the Jackson Heights Post would never include info this in any story. However you can search for yourself here: http://www.illegalaliencrimereport.com/
Bro you do know legal people and white people also commit commit crimes. Race doesn’t discriminate in being an asshole and you sir are probably an a$$hole.
