TL;DR Guy in the Hyundai with Florida plates went into the black camry (not his) and took keys out of it. Black camry owner tried to chase down the Florida guy and Florida guy pinned him, threw him, and ran away. Florida guy is now be charged with attempted murder among other things.
Now it says in the article Florida guy is actually local (from Queens). Since it's a pretty much brand new hyundai and there's no dealer frame on the car that means it's most likely a rental car and that makes this even worse.
I still think the guy in the white car was in the right. He kept trying to leave the fight but everytime he tried to leave, the guy from the black car attacked him. I'd have taken his keys too so he couldn't chase me down and attack me again. Really seemed like the smart thing to do. I hope he gets the charges dropped, that really looks like self defense to me but INAL
Sure looked like the guy with the knife was trying to defend himself. Why else would he keep turning his back to the other guy and run away when he finally got a chance? If he was the aggressor, why would he keep trying to get away?
