According to New York police the assault on Nirmal Singh was unprovoked. Singh said that he was allegedly punched from behind on a Sunday morning walk around 7 a.m. on 95th Avenue and Lefferts Blvd. in Richmond Hill.
Just two days later, the same owner reported he had found what appeared to be a Molotov cocktail device inside his house, but the container had not ignited. Police say they reviewed video surveillance and arrested a suspect in his mid-40s who remains in custody.
A male victim was located and had suffered a gunshot wound. The victim’s 9-year-old son, who was in the back seat of the vehicle at the time of the shooting, thankfully escaped completely unharmed.
When the officers stopped to investigate, one of the men tried to walk away and stash a bag inside a second car that was parked nearby. Officers discovered a 9mm pistol, ammunition, and a variety of controlled substances in that man’s possession.
