Police on Thursday released images of two suspects wanted for punching a 34-year-old man in Long Island City earlier this summer that left him with a broken jaw.

The suspects, two males, got into a verbal dispute with the victim outside 9-19 40 Ave. on July 14 at around 11:20 a.m., according to police. It isn’t clear what prompted the argument.

The incident, however, turned violent, and the assailants punched the victim in the face, breaking the man’s jaw. The suspects then fled the scene, police said.

The victim was transported to Mt. Sinai Hospital in stable condition, the NYPD said.

Both suspects are described by police as being between 30 and 40 years of age, with dark complexions.The first suspect was last seen wearing a white T-shirt, black and white shorts—with a star design on the side, and white sneakers. He also had a black bag that he was carrying across his chest.The second suspect was last seen wearing a black T-shirt and black pants.Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/

Black people commit so much crime that it is politically incorrect to describe the assailant as Black. Black people commit so much crime that laws have to be changed to keep the Black prison population down. All true. Let’s see if the great liberal Sunnyside Post will print this letter.

Yes, Facts do Matter

Ashlee Babbitt was an insurrectionist in the process of committing treason at an uprising preventing the peaceful transfer of power that resulted in the death of police officers. The power of brainwashing has made treason acceptable.

The woman trespassing with the mob that beat the police?

Great point — don’t join violent mobs that are beating uniformed police officers!

I think they mean the millions of dollars in damage and the Blue Lives that were lost.

Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced Monday that 74 firearms were taken off the streets at the Greater Allen A.M.E.
