The suspect is scheduled to return to criminal court on Oct. 24 regarding that case, according to records.
And authorities arrested him twice in 2015, once for walking between subway cars on a train in the 75 Precinct in December — a violation that carries a $75 fine — and after he physically assaulted another guy in Queens in June, Cannon said.
Updated 11:36 am, October 9, 2018: An earlier version of this story has been updated to note that cops arrested and charged the man.
He came here from Puerto Rico just to kill people and fug things up. Typical!

The skeleton of the unnamed carnivorous dinosaur.
Beneath the metallic frame of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the fossilized remains of an unknown species of dinosaur sold to an anonymous buyer earlier today for €2 million (USD $2.3 million). A group of scientists had tried to stop the sale, saying such an important scientific discovery shouldn’t fall to a private collector.
An unknown British businessman sold the remains of the unknown dinosaur to an unknown French fossil collector. During the auction, Japanese and Swedish phone bidders had pushed the price above the €1.8 million (USD $2.1 million) estimate, but the French collector finally prevailed with his €2 million (USD $2.33 million) bid, The Guardian reports.
The large carnivorous dinosaur, likely some type of Allosaurus, was discovered in Wyoming in 2013. Not much is known about the specimen, as it was unearthed by an unnamed group of paleontologists—yet another unknown. The skeleton is nearly 29 feet long and about 70 percent complete. The creature lived between 151 to 156 million years ago during the Jurassic period, so it was a forerunner to the Tyrannosaurs, which didn’t appear until the Cretaceous. It features several key physical differences that set it apart from similar species, such as Allosaurus fragilis.
scientifically important vertebrate fossils are part of our collective natural heritage and deserve to be held in public trust. Scientific practice demands that conclusions drawn from the fossils should be verifiable: scientists must be able to reexamine, re-measure, and reinterpret them (such reexamination can happen decades or even centuries after their discovery). Fossil specimens that are sold into private hands are lost to science.
Even if the bones were made available to scientists, “information contained within privately owned specimens cannot be included in the scientific literature because the availability of the fossil material to other scientists cannot be guaranteed, and therefore verification of scientific claims... cannot be performed,” the SVC wrote in its letter.
The group was also concerned by comments made by Eric Mickeler, an expert who oversaw the auction for Aguttes, who said the new owner would be able to name the new species. The SVC said this was a complete falsehood, and that the naming of the new species is governed by strict rules. Naming priority goes to the first validly published name, said the group, and not to the owner of the new specimen. “You will therefore understand our position when we strongly urge you to reconsider and cancel the sale of this important specimen,” the SVC letter concludes.
Based on today’s sale, it’s clear Aguttes was unswayed by the letter. Hopefully the new owner will be as science-friendly as he’s claiming to be, the concerns of the SVP notwithstanding.
It’s very sad to see fossils being auctioned off like art pieces, but this is apparently what happens now. Back in 2016, for example, the same auction house sold another Allosaurus, dubbed Kan, for €1.1 million (USD $1.29 million). Aguttes says it’s going to give some of the proceeds from the auction to charities working with endangered species. Smooth PR move, but it’s going to take a lot more than that to convince scientists (and the general public) that auctioning off rare fossils to private collectors is a good thing.
Welcome to Day 11 of 25 days with old Austin Christmas photos. Today we look at helping the needy before the advent of the American-Statesman’s Season for Caring campaign.
We’re on Day 5 of 25 days in our photo series focused on Austin Found’s Christmas Past. We discovered that Santa made photo-worth stops here in the 1940s, ’50s and ’60s.
Driving by the 900 block of Springdale Road, one could easily miss them: Two old train stations, set far back behind a large parking lot.
In Arlington, Lake Travis High School defeated The Woodlands 41-13 to win its first Class 6A football title.
Can you tell us more about these old Austin spots?
The words of Nehemiah, etc.: Nehemiah wrote this book from here on.
the twentieth year: This refers to the twentieth year of King Darius, who is identical with Artaxerxes. In Tractate Rosh Hashanah (3a, b), we find that the phrase “the twentieth year” is mentioned twice using similar wording [to teach us that it is speaking of the identical year]. It states below (2:1), “And it came to pass in the month of Nissan of the twentieth year of Artaxerxes, etc.” The years were calculated from the month of Tishrei. It says here, “And it was in the month of Kislev of the twentieth year, etc.” This refers to the Kislev coming after Tishrei. Further down it says (2:1), “And it was in the month of Nissan of the twentieth year, etc.” This refers to the Nissan of the same year. And I cannot explain that they calculated their years from the month of Nissan and that the incident mentioned below: “And it was in the month of Nissan, etc.” occurred before this incident: “And it was in the month of Kislev, etc.” It is true that events [in the Torah] are not necessarily recorded in chronological order. Nevertheless, the chapters indicate that the second chapter took place only because of the events of the first chapter.
one of my brethren: one of my companions.
and I asked them about the Jews: I asked them about the Jews who had escaped the Babylonian captivity and remained in Jerusalem.
who had escaped: because they were saved from the Babylonian exile.
and about Jerusalem: And I asked them about the city.
And they said to me: They answered my first question first and my latter question last; first, concerning the Jews and afterwards, concerning the wall and the gates.
who remained: Those Jews who remained in the province of Jerusalem are in great trouble and reproach because the gentiles plunder and pillage them.
and the wall of Jerusalem is breached: And the wall of the city is breached, and the gates are burned with fire as they were before, for Israel had not built the wall of the city or its gates, only the Temple.
were burned: Heb. נִצְתוּ, like נֻצְתוּ.
for days: Heb. יָמִים, many days.
I beseech You: Heb. אָנָא, an expression of request and supplication.
attentive: Heb. קַשֶּׁבֶת, like קוֹשֶּׁבֶת, listening, for just as one says from אוֹהֵב, אָהַב, so does one say from קָשַּׁב, קוֹשֵּׁב and קוֹשֶּׁבֶת.
I beseech You, O Lord, may Your ear now be attentive: At the beginning of his prayer he used this expression, and so after his prayer.
Your servant: This is what he prayed for himself.
before this man: before the king.
butler: Heb. מַשְּׁקֶה, like (Gen. 40:1): “… the butler of (מַשְּׁקֶה) the king of Egypt.” This is what I explained above (Ezra 2:63) according to the words of our Sages, that Hattirshatha is Nehemiah.
Manchester United suffered a damaging 1-1 draw with Newcastle at Old Trafford after Demba Ba's controversial penalty earned a point for the 10-man visitors on Saturday.
Alex Ferguson's second-placed side are four points behind Manchester City and that gap will extend to seven if the leaders win at Liverpool on Sunday, so it was no surprise the United boss was fuming at full-time.
Javier Hernandez had given United the lead just after half-time but Ba levelled after referee Michael Jones took his assistant's advice to award a penalty for Rio Ferdinand's challenge on Hatem Ben Arfa.
Newcastle played the last 12 minutes of the game with 10 men, after Jonas Gutierrez's dismissal for a second yellow card for a clumsy foul on Nani.
Elsewhere, Chelsea winger Juan Mata gave under-fire boss Andre Villas-Boas the perfect tonic as his superb display inspired a comfortable 3-0 win over Wolves at Stamford Bridge.
Villas-Boas has come under heavy criticism in recent weeks following Chelsea's woeful run and some reports claimed he could be sacked by owner Roman Abramovich despite only joining the club from Porto in the close-season.
Abramovich responded by insisting the 34-year-old would be allowed time to build a team capable of winning the Champions League.
But after three defeats from their last four league games and a Champions League loss at Bayer Leverkusen, this much-needed victory -- secured thanks to goals from John Terry, Daniel Sturridge and the majestic Mata -- went someway to easing the pressure on Villas-Boas.
Jermain Defoe and Emmanuel Adebayor scored late goals to hand Tottenham a fifth straight Premier League victory with a 3-1 win at West Bromwich Albion.
Youssouf Mulumbu had headed the Baggies deservedly in front only for Adebayor to swiftly level matters when he tapped in after seeing his initial penalty saved.
Defoe lashed home a low shot from the edge of the area in the 81st minute. Adebayor then doubled his tally in injury-time after converting Gareth Bale's cross.
Police in three towns, county sheriff's officers and the U.S. Marshals Service helped bring in the suspect.
LAKEWOOD - Police have arrested one of three men they believe carjacked and stabbed a motorist on East Spruce Street Sunday.
They also recovered the victim's car.
Stanin M. Morgan, 25, of Neptune, is facing charges of robbery, aggravated assault and weapons offenses after officers with the Asbury Park Police Department's Street Crimes Unit arrested him Wednesday evening, according to a prepared statement from Lakewood police Capt. Gregory Staffordsmith.
Lakewood police officers first went to East Spruce Street at about 10:50 p.m. to investigate a home security alarm and found blood, police said in an earlier statement Monday.
Meanwhile, another officer went to the Monmouth Medical Center Southern Campus on a report of a 24-year-old stabbing victim.
The victim, whom police identified Thursday as Engel Paulino, was in his car on East Spruce when he "was approached by three masked men who proceeded to forcibly remove him from his 2007 BMW," Staffordsmith said. "During the struggle, Paulino sustained a large laceration to the side of his head as well as several non-life-threatening stab wounds to his chest."
Paulino was treated and released from the hospital, Staffordsmith said.
Police Officer Kevin Martin tracked down Paulino's car in Neptune Monday afternoon, Staffordsmith said. The car, a black 2007 BMW, was brought to the Ocean County Sheriff's Office in Toms River "for processing and evidence recovery," he said.
Police developed a suspect — Morgan — and obtained a search warrant, Staffordsmith said. After Asbury Park officers arrested Morgan, he was charged by Lakewood police and sent to the Ocean County Jail in Toms River.
The U.S. Marshals Service and Neptune Township Police Department also involved in the case, police said.
"In addition, this case is still active and although charges have not been filed at the time of this release, we are hopeful that the remaining suspects will be apprehended in the near future," Staffordsmith said.
Naples' most decorated golf club is still in Golfweek's Best Modern Golf Courses.
Calusa Pines Golf Club even moved up a spot to No. 24 in the magazine's "annual Best" released last week.
The members of Golfweek's course-ratings panel continually evaluate courses and rate them based on 10 criteria. They also file a single, overall rating on each course. Modern courses are those built after 1960.
Those overall ratings on each course are averaged together to produce a final rating for each course. Then each course is ranked against other courses in its state, or nationally, to produce the final rankings.
Calusa Pines has a 7.71 rating. It opened in 2001 and was designed by Dr. Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry.
The North Naples layout was No. 91 on Golf Magazine's 2017-18 ranking of the Top 100 Courses in the U.S., and stayed at No. 3 in Florida in Golf Digest rankings earlier this year. The magazine had ranked Calusa Pines 96th in its America's 100 Greatest Courses.

Nantz thanks Venturi: Broadcaster Jim Nantz has been named the 2018 recipient of the Ambassador of Golf Award. The Ambassador of Golf Award is presented annually by Northern Ohio Golf Charities to a person who has fostered the ideals of the game on an international level and whose concern for others extends beyond the golf course.
Nantz joins two former CBS colleagues, his longtime producer, Frank Chirkinian (1989), and Ken Venturi (1998), his former lead analyst, as recipients of the Ambassador of Golf Award. Venturi was a longtime Marco Island resident and died in 2013. Nantz inducted Venturi, who was ill and couldn't attend, into the World Golf Hall of Fame earlier that year.
"I truly consider this to be one of the greatest honors of my career,” Nantz said in a release. “I've attended this celebration many times and will never forget being there to see how much it meant to Frank and Kenny. The game of golf has been a blessing in my life and to be able to live out the childhood dream of covering the PGA Tour, well, I'm a lucky man. There are no words to express the depth of my gratitude for this recognition."
Nantz will be honored during a presentation in the Main Dining Room at Firestone Country Club at 6 p.m., on Wednesday, Aug. 1.

Forecasters say flooding set to worsen in Malaysia, Thailand and Sri Lanka, where 200,000 have been displaced.
People in South East Asia have been warned to prepare for more flooding, after days of heavy rain across the region that has killed dozens of people and displaced tens of thousands in Thailand, Malaysia and Sri Lanka.
Weather forecasters on Sunday warned that much of Malaysia will see more storms in the next three days; Thailand and Sri Lankan authorities also warned their people to brace for more floods.
"We expect another surge in heavy rain followed by strong winds brought by the seasonal northeast monsoon, which usually continues till March," a Malaysian meteorological department official told AFP news agency.
According to officials, more than 200,000 people across the region have been left homeless because of the floods.
