Looks like the letter “A” now stands for “arrest.”
A graffiti vandal who allegedly scrawled crudely drawn letter “A’s” on the side of nearly two dozen cars in Queens was busted Friday, cops said.
Herberto Torres, 57, who has 43 prior arrests, was hit with 46 counts of making graffiti and criminal mischief after being arrested at 12:15 a.m. Friday, cops said.
He allegedly spray-painted multiple cars with the letter “A” — which is a nickname he goes by, according to authorities and police sources.
The alleged graffiti bandit was tracked to an auto body shop where he worked, because a customer’s vehicle was used in the crimes, sources said.
After his arrest, he was let free on a desk appearance ticket, sources said.
Cops tallied 65 graffiti incidents dating back to late March — and at this point, Torres has been charged with 46 of them, police said. The remaining incidents are under investigation.
On March 26, on 35th Street between 31st Avenue and Broadway, 20 vehicles were vandalized between 8:30 and 10:11 a.m., police said.
Then on May 18, between 4 a.m. and 9 a.m., 20 more vehicles were targeted on 27th Street between 23rd Avenue and Ditmars Boulevard, police said.
The next day, 17 vehicles were graffitied on 33rd Street between 23rd Avenue and Ditmars Boulevard between 9 a.m. and 11:45 a.m., authorities said.
The final spree came on May 22, when eight vehicles were spray-painted on 32nd Street between 34th Avenue and Broadway between 7:35 a.m. and 10 a.m., cops said.
Back in October, Torres was busted for allegedly tagging more than 50 cars in Jackson Heights with spray paint spelling out “BLM” or “AOC,” police said.

Folks you voted for this bail reform in the politicians you elect. Now live with the consequences. What a bunch of fucking idiots. Keep voting Socialist, I mean DemocRats.
You mean it wasn’t the sheeple guy?
So he's out once again to continue his crimes ? WTF NYC ...
Free on a desk appearance ticket. It okay cause he is going after cars. Next time you see a bicyclist you see one of his friends.
Park in a bike lane and you get towed. See the difference?
Northwest, no?
Just another Brain Dead, Stupid, Liberal!
So it was all a liberal mid life crisis?
Student debt victim acting out ?
57 years old. Get a life, loser!
Fake news this never happened. Just a normal day for tourists in the city.
A for Amn an asshole
Everyone vandalized should get to line up and kick him in the nuts.
43 prior arrests and these idiot ny politicians are still "wondering" why crime is so out of control in this city. Keep "wondering" mayor dumbdumb and idiot Cuomo. But this is what the people voted for so you can't complain because bail is now considered racist! Welcome to the new "woke" world! Have fun!
AOC supporter. Says it all.
I'm starting to think the entire woke mob is just one person changing their hair colour. They are all this same creepy angsty ugly nerd look.
This dude drank way to much liberal kool aid!
All I have to say: "Lay off the Meth"
Pathetic, yet another example of what extended adolescence can do to a person... I bet he either rides a scooter or a skateboard
Beware of ideologues obsessed with utopian ideas that satisfy their perverse desires.
43 prior arrests !
The dems have been been in politics so long' they have finally lost their minds!!!
We need A LOT of clean up on aisle America.
Where are the judge's to rule on this nonsense ?
There's nothing more dangerous than a liberal rascist, Malcom X..
I think that’s that George character with the silly avatar. I always thought he was a leftie. Now I’m sure.
I pity the autobody shop customer whose car this guy "borrowed" to perpetrate these acts. Will probably have a ton of red tape to clear up after this...
These are the kind of people supporting AOC, Caban etc. Wake up and vote republican to stop these bullies!
If the NY Post says he’s guilty, then he must be. Why bother with a trial.
Frank Kenna Republican Club? Would love to see that club resurrected.
Post your playbook Tweets and shut up Sheeple !
Don't question Bail Reform or the Jab doink passport/ID !
Whyyy does this post say Northeast Queens when it talks about Astoria
@Anon re: Whyyy
My mistake. I'm so used to writing about SE Queens I slipped up.
Isn't he Carl Heastie's Public Relation Manager for Bail Reform?
Don't Worry. Carl Heastie will make sure he is given another free pass to vandalize Queens again.
In the end, JQ (as in the beginning), the toxic, raped, ravaged and politically TONSURED Borough of QUEENS County is a raw sewage overspill plant that can be now putridly smelled from OUTER SPACE. But, don't worry: Soon, the people who barely survive here in public squalor will all perish, under the soul-crushing weight of complete exploitation by the 1% (and, the corporate puppet, DemonRat stooges to whom are beholden to their intolerant extremism and corporate obedience. ONly then can the precious earth be properly restored by the legendary, recuperative powers of nature itself.
No, it’s probably that Frank Kenna guy, just back from the Dallas Q-Anon fest.
For a guy with marasmus, it is impressive, a miracle, that he had the energy to go on a vandalizing spree.
Just a Punk Ass Bitch who needs to go to jail if guilty !
What we have here is one of these wacko #BlueAnon types.
Do We need a 911 like commission to get to the bottom of this ?
