And You thought you were having a BAD DAY BREAKIN' BAD

Man Who Allegedly Threw Molotov Cocktails At Police To Be Arraigned

A Queens man who police say later told them he was having a bad day is scheduled to be arraigned today on charges he attacked a man with a machete and then threw Molotov cocktails at police. Felipe Velasquez, 21, faces a number of charges, including attempted murder, assault, and arson. Police say it all started when a 45-year-old man was attacked with a machete on 123rd Street near Hillside Avenue yesterday evening. He fought off Vasquez, his alleged attacker, with an umbrella. Police say Velasquez then retreated to a nearby roof where he began throwing Molotov cocktails -- one of which hit an unmarked police car. Officers were eventually able to subdue the man and bring him into custody.
