Life Not All Rainbows for Chauffer Who Crossed Young Cipriani

Restaurateurs the Cipriani family are no strangers to running on the wrong side of the law and now it appears that their next generation is ready to step in and carry on their troublesome traditions. 20-year-old Ignazio Cipriani and a friend were arrested for third-degree assault after sucker-punching a limo driver outside of Chelsea nightclub 1Oak. The young Cipriani had been drunkenly raising a ruckus when he was denied admission and soon decided to target the driver. After hitting the ground once he got clocked, the chauffer tells the Post, "My head was part way under a car, and I opened one eye and saw two guys kicking me." A lawyer for Cipriani told the press, "This is nothing more than a group of young people pushing and shoving in front of a nightclub. We don't see a crime here at all." The 10ak was last in the news over the summer for tossing unwanteds from the club—specifically employees who claimed they were fired because the owner "only wanted white girls working there."
