Police say 18-year-old Verlain Beauge has been arrested following a slashing of a 20-year old woman at Roosevelt Field Mall.
As News 12 has reported, a woman was walking in the mall when she was struck in the face. Police say she then noticed a knife in the suspect’s hand.
Police say Beauge was arrested two other times this year alone, once for unauthorized use of a vehicle and another time for criminal possession of a controlled substance.
The man then fled the scene. The woman suffered a large laceration to her left cheek and was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment, police said.
Beauge was previously arrested on Jan. 23 and released without bail and charged with unauthorized use of a vehicle, and arrested on March 3 and charged with fifth-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, police said.
There are local reports that he is here illegally, but we couldn’t confirm it.
Beauge was released without bail. Thank Gov. Kathy Hochul for this.
This incident was the latest in a long line of crimes at the mall recently. You should know this is a very upscale mall outside the elite Garden City.
Find and terminate with extreme prejudice.
Bring back the Singapore caning method of discouraging bad behavior.
He was NOT released without bail! Check the court website.
Time for some adult male relatives of the young lady to take this guy out to the woods and turn his face into confetti. Let the legal system know that if they continue to refuse to do their job it will be done for them.
and TO them as well
This is a perfect object lesson on why we need Universal Concealed Carry laws to affect a change in how Americans deserve to have the right to stop the violence dead in its tracks. Yes a few aggressive drug addicts will die as they try robbing Americans on the street, but it won’t take many before the word gets out that anyone trying to rob us will be shot regardless of whether they do so with a gun, knife or a baseball bat. You MUST UNDERSTAND that we are at war with unhinged individuals who believe they rob and steal with impunity.
