Teen accused of shoving Queens grandmother down church steps attempts suicide at NYPD precinct

16-year-old Jayvaun Prince was arrested for shoving Irene Tahliambouris down the steps of a Queens church.

The teen boy busted for callously shoving a Queens grandmother down the steps of her church and stealing her purse attempted to take his own life while in custody Friday, law enforcement sources said.

Jayvaun Prince, 16 — who was arrested Thursday in the brutal mugging of 68-year-old Irene Tahliambouris — took his shirt off and wrapped it around his neck inside the NYPD’s 107th Precinct stationhouse, the sources said.

He was brought out in a stretcher and hospitalized, but was not seriously injured, the sources said.

The teen is expected to be arraigned in the youth part of Queens Criminal Court on Friday night on charges including robbery and grand larceny for the April 7 mugging on the front steps of St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church in Briarwood, a district attorney’s office spokesperson said.

He has also been charged with robbing another woman inside a Jamaica, Queens, apartment building and then fleeing in her car on April 4, according to the sources.

“The viciousness with which the defendant is accused of having committed the robbery at the church struck the city at its core,” Queens DA Melinda Katz said in a statement.

“As alleged, he chose to rob an elderly woman by first pushing her down the stairs and then proceeded to take her purse and leave her to suffer while he took off in her car. He will now have to answer for the serious charges levied against him by my Office.”

Give him some training and give him another go at it. I’ll be happy to buy the rope or razor blade.

Sounds like a fake attempt - send in the Epstein crew to help him get it right...

He did this because he knows what’s waiting for him on the outside. He’s much safer within the graybar motel than without.

Oh: I thought that was a tear. /s

It was just an effect of ROFLMAO.

I hope it did and continues to generate much pain.

Every single occupant holding cell should be equipped with a length of rope and a step stool. Give them a CHOICE, to escape prosecution or be prosecuted.
