Two Queens deli workers have been indicted for allegedly coming out from behind the counter at a Rockaway Park deli and attacking a customer who complained about their french fries.
The Queens District Attorney’s Office announced on Friday that 23-year-old Jorge Hernandez and 34-year-old Saber Abuhamra were being charged with strangulation in the first degree, strangulation in the second degree, assault in the second degree, and assault in the third degree.
“A grand jury has weighed in and these defendants stand accused of a brutal attack and will be held to account,” Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz said in a statement.
Back on June 11, an argument between 31-year-old customer James Keena and the two workers escalated to physical violence at the Pickles and Pies Food Market and Deli at 202 Beach 116th Street.

Hernandez then allegedly put his arm around Keena’s neck and held him on the floor while Abuhamra punched and kicked him in the head and stomach, authorities said.
