The New York City man suspected of killing Yazmeen Williams last Friday was met with a furious and vengeful crowd during his arrest earlier this week. Chad Irish, the person of interest was taken into custody on Monday and has since been charged in connection to the killing, according to the NYPD. However, distraught and angry neighbors were not letting him go without a fight.
The anger and frustration over the heinous crime reached its boiling point in the Kips Bay neighborhood when the police apprehended Irish just a stone’s throw away from where Yazmeen’s body was discovered. As the authorities were preparing to transfer him to a gurney, a crowd of enraged community members gathered, unleashing their fury.
Video footage captured the chaotic scene as family and friends of Yazmeen clashed with the police and EMTs, desperately trying to get to Irish. Amidst the chaos, several individuals punched him, while others can be heard pleading for the crowd to take matters into their own hands, even attempting to tear his shirt off.
Despite the hostile environment, the man asserted his innocence, desperately pleading his case to the angry mob. Eventually, he was loaded into an ambulance, which swiftly departed from the scene.
