Subway Vigilante Daniel Penny Indicted for Death of Jordan Neely: Report
Daniel Penny, the vigilante who choked Jordan Neely to death on a New York City subway train last month, was indicted Wednesday by a Manhattan grand jury, ABC 7 reported.
The 24-year-old surrendered to police in May on a charge of second-degree manslaughter after horrifying footage revealed Penny placing Neely, a 30-year-old Black homeless man, in a chokehold for several minutes until he passed out. While it is unclear what charges the former U.S. Marine will be indicted on, they will be unsealed at his arraignment at a later date.
The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office did not immediately provide comment to The Daily Beast.
