Ferry Terminal Attack

This woman would have been better off getting on the ferry and not coming back. It was Wednesday, March 20, around 12:30 a.m., near the Staten Island Ferry terminal on South Street when a woman, 21, told police that a man had hit her in the face with his fists, causing pain and lacerations to her left lower lip. She also said the man tried to strangle her with his bare hands. The woman was taken to Beth Israel Hospital for further evaluation. Following the incident, a Hispanic male, 26, was placed under arrest for assault, among other charges. It was unclear whether or not the woman knew her attacker.
