NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- A man mocked another man for operating a lemonade stand in Little Italy, telling him only “children sell lemonade” before hurling a glass bottle at his face, police said.
The NYPD released surveillance video of the suspect Monday as they search for him in the Sept. 16 attack, which happened during the Feast of San Gennaro.
The 29-year-old victim was working the annual festival around 10:50 p.m. when he was approached by his outraged attacker, who chastised him for selling lemonade, calling it a job for “children,” according to police.
