A man who seen on video charging protesters in New York City while wearing a glove with four long, serrated-edged blades has been indicted on attempted murder charges, the Queens district attorney said Wednesday.
A man who was seen on video charging Black Lives Matter protesters while wearing a glove with four long, serrated blades has been convicted of attempted murder charges, the Queens district attorney announced Monday.
People were peacefully gathering on the overpass above the Cross Island Parkway in June 2020 when Frank Cavalluzzi, 57, jumped out of a vehicle, shouting"I will kill you," and chasing protesters while wearing a"glove of blades," prosecutors alleged."A dangerous man is going to jail. It’s a good day for New York and the First Amendment,” District Attorney Melinda Katz said.
Prosecutors say Cavalluzzi screamed a number of profanities and racial slurs at the protestors before threatening their lives and getting back into this vehicle and jumping the curb.
