Bronx Family Says NYPD Rang Their Bells to Ring in NYE
NYPD's Internal Affairs is looking into a Bronx family's charges that when cops came to break up their New Year's Eve celebrations, they crashed more than just the party. Emilio Serrano says that cops immediately started hitting him when they arrived to respond to a noise complaint. He tells 1010 WINS, "They just came and starting beating me with sticks, punching me in the face, kicking me." He says that a security video (captured on four cameras set up inside the apartment) shows police throwing guests down violently and spraying them with mace. He apparently had to get a staple in his scalp and has bruises on his face from the incident. Cops however say that the video will only vindicate them, showing that guests were acting belligerently toward them and that the Serranos were illegally using their apartment as a nightclub. It seems that parties this New Year's Eve just wouldn't wind down quietly—in Staten Island, a landlord is accused of breaking into a tenant's home and firing off a shotgun in order to put an abrupt end to the festivities.
