NEW YORK — Police arrested five people Sunday in connection with a brutal machete attack on a teen outside a Bronx bodega earlier in the week.

Lesandro Guzman-Feliz, 15, was pulled out of the Cruz and Chiky grocery Wednesday by members of the Dominican gang Trinitarios, who beat him, hacked him with a machete and left him to die on the sidewalk outside the store in what officials believe was a case of mistaken identity, according to the New York Post.

Gang members wrongly believed Guzman-Feliz was in a revenge sex video posted online that featured a relative of one of the attackers, according to the Post.

A leader of the gang later apologized on Facebook for the mistake, according to WPIX.

Diversity is our strength !!!

Pelosi would (and did) say that these Dominican murderers have a spark of divinity in them and should not be called “animals”. She would also say that more of these undocumented democrats should be allowed in - quickly, before November’s election.

What’s a bodega?

>>What’s a bodega?<<

I watched Law & Order enough to learn it means “small convenience store.”

In California we called them “Liquor stores” whether or not they sell booze.

[capydick]

It’s a small super market

[Safetgiver]

ANIMALS, Pelosi! Animals!

[Bulwyf]

Better that than watching that go down. Coward.

Let em go.. it was the wrong kid and the leader of their gang apologized and already kicked them out of the gang... haven’t they suffered enough (said some liberal somewhere).

[Deplorable American1776]

A gang has a Facebook page, but conservatives have their shut down?!?! Does that make any sense?

"...Coward..."

Perhaps the owner of the bodega recognized the gangbanger killers had no argument with him, just with a specific other person in the store, whom the owner likely knows very little about. Besides, the story is from NYC, so that means the owner would have likely been armed with a paper napkin and some cheap plastic cutlery.

Jihadists to the left of me. Cartelistas to the right of me.

[Bulwyf]

I’d be armed with hands and still not let that happen. It’s just my nature I suppose.

“The owner of the bodega was there when the kid was being dragged out and did nothing.”

Yeah that’s pretty messed up.

[jocon307]

Hello, this is in the middle of NYC, he could have picked up the phone and dialed 9-1-1, and don’t tell me he doesn’t have a gun, because nobody on the planet is that stupid.

[Deplorable American1776]

David AttentionHogg, got an opinion on this? Or is this NOT a gun killing...so you aren’t saying anything...

[Lurker]

“Yes, the bodega owner should have let himself be hacked to bits, too. Clearly.”

No, he should have shot the assailants dead on the spot.

That is very likely what the bodega owner did. Call the police.
The unfortunate teen was attacked by multiple killers armed with machetes.
Even if a team of trauma surgeons was magically on standby, there is a distinct opportunity that kid still would not survive.

Maybe if the place had sane gun laws, the owner could have been in a position to help...or if the Dems/RINOs would let us deal with the animals as they need to be dealt with.....

[BunnySlippers]

It was a chilling video!

Today we hear that after the attack the kid came back into the Bodega. The Owner told him to go away. The Kid tried to get to a nearby hospital and died on the way.

There is a big difference in not getting involved (during the attack) and not offering aid afterwards.
