Detectives want to talk to a man
believed to be connected to
a super-sized fi ght outside a
McDonald’s restaurant in Maspeth
last month that left two men stabbed
and four others injured.
Cops said the fracas ensued at 3:10
a.m. on Dec. 28 outside the fast food
joint located at 59-60 55th Road.
According to law enforcement
sources, a large group of individuals
got into a beef that led to violence.
During the free-for-all, two men
were stabbed: a 27-year-old man was
cut in the leg, and a 25-year-old man
was knifed in the shoulder.
Paramedics brought both individuals
to a local hospital in stable
condition.
Four others involved in the episode
suffered minor injuries, police
said, including one who had been
struck by an unknown vehicle.
On Jan. 3, the NYPD released a photo
of a person of interest sought for questioning
in connection to the rumble.

the incident or his whereabouts

TIPS (for Spanish, dial 888-57-PISTA),
