A Queens lawmaker who was assaulted and mugged by three masked
assailants is offering his gratitude to local authorities for taking
swift action in arresting the individuals.
On Thursday, April 9, as he was returning to his Downtown Flushing home from a walk, City Councilman Peter Koo was confronted by the three attackers in the lobby of his building.
As words were exchanged and Koo attempted to call 911, the assailants tried to steal his phone, according to the councilman. Koo held on to his phone and continued to scream at the muggers, at which point they ran off.
After contacting the 109th Precinct, officers later arrested two of the assailants shortly after they robbed another person several blocks away.
Describing it as a “frightening encounter” Koo said he maintained his composure to the best of his ability and contacted the police immediately with the descriptions and the direction they were heading.

Welcome to the party pal!!!
Us crappers get mugged all the time by you shitty politicians
Glad it worked out for him.
He is very lucky he could have gotten hurt or worst.
NYC residents are sitting Ducks for criminals with the right to bear arms restricted.
Horrible bail reform is making life so much more dangerous.
And to top it off New York State has taken your and your loved ones fundamental right to self-defense and your Second Amendment rights. Right-to-Carry & Castle Doctrine Laws save lives.

Pray tell, undocumented?
If a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged, a liberal is a conservative who's been arrested.
ROUND UP THE USUAL SUSPECTS!!!!
Add additional charges against them for not maintaining six feet between them and their victim.
too bad. so sad. YOUR POLICIES HAVE CREATED THE REALITY you see around you, Mr. Koo.
@ Tom Wolfe said... ??? We have Lawyers for Court when needed.
What would you have done if you were in a position like Peter Koo ?
Explian how you would have protected yourself/Love Ones or your children.
Call 911 ? Wait and become a victim ?
Welcome to the real world ahole. That's what you get with your liberal, everybody get out of jail policies.
Now only if the jackass DemocRATS in Albany would get mugged maybe they would wake up. Their great bail reform is working like they intended. Empty all the jails.
I feel bad for the law abiding public. Like sheep going to slaughter. Heaven help us.
No problem no bail back on the streets to try again
What? No names? No pictures? Which politician are they related to?
It was probably by one of those prisoners they just let out of jail due to the virus.
What? No names? No pictures? Which politician are they related to?
When the media doesn't provide names or pictures of the perpetrators, you can assume with 99% accuracy they are members of the "vibrant and diverse".
We all know that the media hoped and prayed that the suspects were white. Would have fit right into the narrative. Asians were again being excluded in the minority discussion (remember, they have been lumped in with whites in the specialty high school discussion) as they actually have been impacted the least by the virus, so they have been playing the virus anti-Asian sentiment. Of course, Koo threw in comments about anti-Asian sentiment without even knowing the race of his attackers. They could have been Korean for all we know. Imagine if someone was attacked and made a passive accusation like that.
He's just pulling a Jussie Smolett for sympathy
I'm surprised the peeps didn't leave a noose and MAGA hat.
If they were white, pictures or at least a full description would have been given in the first sentence. Anything other than white, no mention at all. It's always the case.

Euew! Boo Hoo! Bamboo Zoo Crew Threw Rue Koo
Years ago on the news they would give a description of the person but nowadays they exclude race,it wouldn't be politically correct to give that info.So why bother?
Knock Knock - Koo there ?
Koo - Koo Who ?
Koo be Lying ?
What language did Koo scream at them with: Mandarin, Cantonese, Ebonics, Espanol, NY slang? (Polish, Greek, Creole)? I think the citizenry deserves an answer, no? What was his gut lingo that he used? C'mon Koo fess up.
These "TEENS" need resiliency training...
"C'mon Koo fess up." He sreamed like a cat in a Wet Market !
According to this interview, Kon says he doesn’t believe it was an anti Asian attack.

Truly poetic justice!😃
