Elmont man charged with wrench assault
A 20-year-old Elmont man was arrested Wednesday afternoon, two days after police said he struck a 21-year-old man over the head with a wrench in Hewlett.
The wrench assault occurred Monday at about 1:30 p.m. near the intersection of Peninsula Boulevard and Mill Road, police said. Police said the victim, whose identity was not released, suffered a laceration to his head that required medical attention at a hospital.
Other details of the attack were not clear.
Shure is scheduled for arraignment Thursday in First District Court in Hempstead.
Court records also indicate Shure faces misdemeanor drug charges in connection with marijuana possession in an unrelated case.
