His idea of a relaxing day at the spa in Flushing was to beat the heck out of an acquaintance.
Cops released graphic video footage on Aug. 22 of the suspect who attacked a 30-year-old man with a metal coffee cup during a dispute inside a Flushing spa last month.
According to police, at 11 a.m. on July 19, the victim got into an argument with the assailant, an acquaintance of his known as “Charlie,” at the unnamed establishment located at 136-20 Roosevelt Ave. During the dispute, law enforcement sources said, Charlie became violent and hit the victim with a metal travel cup and punched him several times in the head.
The victim was taken to NewYork-Presbyterian/Queens hospital for treatment of a head laceration. The incident was later reported to the 109th Precinct.
