Queens DA paralegal fired after arrest for threatening to bomb Elmhurst migrant shelter

An Elmhurst man was fired from his job as a paralegal at the Queens District Attorney’s office after he was arrested and criminally charged late last month for threatening to bomb a migrant shelter across the street from his home on 77th Street just south of Roosevelt Avenue.

Derek Klever, 27, was arrested by police from the 110th Precinct in Elmhurst after they executed a search warrant at his apartment at 40-37 77th St. a day after they learned of his plot to bomb the Kamway Lodge, a hostel at 40-36 77th St., that the city converted to temporarily house asylum seekers.
