Teen Arrested After Brutal Mob Beating of Couple in Malba

BREAKING: A 19-year-old has been arrested and charged with multiple offenses following a brutal mob beating of a couple during a chaotic car meetup in Malba, New York on November 23, 2025. Authorities confirm that Justin Aguilera faces serious charges, including two counts of gang assault and four counts of assault, among others.

The arrest took place at 6:00 p.m. Thursday within the 109th Precinct, as reported by the New York Police Department (NYPD). The violent encounter erupted around 12:30 a.m. when a group of drivers engaged in reckless behavior, performing donuts at the intersection of South Drive and 141st Street. It escalated when Blake Ferrer and his wife confronted the drivers, demanding they leave their property.

In a shocking show of violence, Ferrer was brutally attacked, suffering broken bones and requiring immediate medical attention at NewYork-Presbyterian Queens Hospital. Eyewitness videos shared by Republican City Councilwoman Vickie Paladino illustrate the chaos, showing Ferrer brandishing a baseball bat while his wife attempts to call for help just before they were assaulted.

Police are actively searching for three additional suspects involved in this terrifying incident. Authorities report that two assailants fled the scene in a white Chevy Silverado, heading southbound on the Whitestone Expressway. They are described as males between the ages of 18 and 24 years old.

Paladino condemned the violence, labeling it an example of the “anarcho-tyranny” prevalent in New York under progressive governance. The NYPD’s investigation persists, with reports indicating that the suspects engaged in a verbal dispute with Ferrer before launching their attack.

The impact of this incident reverberates throughout the community, highlighting issues of safety and lawlessness during large gatherings. As the investigation unfolds, Aguilera is scheduled for arraignment on Friday, with the community demanding justice for the victims of this heinous attack.

Stay tuned for further updates as police continue their search for the remaining suspects and more details come to light.
