What started as a fight over a parking space in Parkchester turned into an attempted car theft, according to police, and now they are looking for the man they say is responsible.
Authorities say the confrontation unfolded on Feb. 8 just before 5 p.m. in front of 1654 Metropolitan Ave., when a man approached a 60-year-old who was sitting in his parked car and began arguing over the spot. As the victim stepped out of the vehicle, the other man allegedly punched him, then jumped behind the wheel and tried to drive off, according to News 12 New York. Police say the 60-year-old managed to pull the suspect out of the car before the attacker took off on foot. The man ran from the scene, and investigators say the search is still ongoing.
