Far Rock man said, “I’ll kill you” to victim: DA

FAR ROCKAWAY — A Far Rockaway man was charged with menacing and harassment after he allegedly threatened to kill another man inside a neighborhood convenience store, a spokeswoman for Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said.

Edward Jeter, 44, was inside the Sand Castle Food Mart, at 711 Seagirt Ave. between 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. May 16, when he allegedly raised his hands toward the victim’s face and said, “Today is your last day, I will kill you,” according to the criminal complaint.

Jeter was arraigned May 16 before Queens Criminal Court Judge John Zoll, who released Jeter on his own recognizance on charges of menacing and harassment, the spokeswoman said.

Jeter is scheduled to next appear in court June 21, the spokeswoman said.
