Reckless driver arrested in fiery car meet-up that wreaked havoc at NYC intersection: cops #shorts
A reckless driver who allegedly helped wreak havoc at a Queens intersection in a wild car meet-up surrendered to police Thursday — after video of the fiery mayhem sparked an uproar, cops and sources said.
Asil Assaidi, 22, was charged by cops with reckless endangerment, riot, criminal mischief and other raps for the unhinged Saturday gathering at the Eliot Avenue and 69th Street intersection along the Maspeth-Middle Village border, police said.
Sources said Assaidi was allegedly caught on video doing doughnuts in a blue Infiniti during the lawless street takeover in the neighborhood that locals described as otherwise “sleepy.”
