Man Arrested for Punching 9-Year-Old Girl at Grand Central Station After Previous Attack
Jean Carlos Zarzuela, who was previously charged with assaulting an elderly woman, was arrested for allegedly punching a 9-year-old girl at Grand Central Terminal. Despite facing assault charges, he had been released without bail. The girl was taken to the hospital, and Zarzuela was back in custody on Sunday. The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office stated that he was awaiting arraignment. This incident has raised concerns about the release of suspects by Judge Laurie Peterson, who had previously made controversial decisions in similar cases.
