Manhattan District Attorney Alvin L. Bragg, Jr., recently announced the sentencing of Salem Seleiman, 30, to two years in state prison for a hate crime attack against a 29-year-old Jewish man, Joseph “Joey” Borgen, in Times Square in May 2021.
“Kimond Cyrus was sentenced to a significant state prison term for the horrifying shooting of Sueng Chul Choi as he was working his late-night shift.” said District Attorney Bragg. “Cyrus engaged in escalating turned-deadly gun violence – committing a gunpoint robbery before brazenly ending Mr. Choi’s life. Mr. Choi was a father and a hardworking person, and although we cannot bring him back, I hope that his family and loved ones can take solace knowing this defendant has been brought to justice.”
A Florida man involved in the brutal caught-on-camera beating of a Jewish victim in Times Square became the sixth and final defendant sentenced in the disgrace, landing two years behind bars Thursday.
A Manhattan man was convicted on Thursday of gunning down a man, a woman and the woman’s dog in a dispute over barking in Manhattan.
The Manhattan district attorney says Salem Seleiman, 30, has been sentenced to two years in prison for the beating of Joey Borgen, a Jewish man, in 2021.
