Dec. 20, 2010 Staff Report

The lights on the Sunnyside Arch are expected to glow once again.

During the first week of January, Sunnyside Shines, the local business improvement group (BID), will be erecting lights which will be permanently affixed  to the arch. The BID will have the ability to light them whenever it chooses and whatever color.

Historically, the arch has had lighting; however, in recent years the lights have been out.

Brooklyn man indicted on manslaughter, DWI charges in deadly Astoria crash that killed the mother of his child: DA

A Brooklyn man was indicted by a Queens grand jury on charges of manslaughter, drunk driving and other crimes for a fatal collision in Astoria that killed his long-time girlfriend and mother of their young child in February.

Ray Perez, 27, of Caton Avenue in Flatbush, was arraigned Thursday in Queens Supreme Court on a 13-count indictment charging him with vehicular manslaughter for allegedly speeding through a stop sign in Astoria, colliding with another vehicle and slamming into two parked cars, and then driving nearly four miles away to a street in Maspeth before seeking help for his 29-year-old girlfriend Bridget Enriquez, who later succumbed to her injuries.
