Disability rights advocate says state senator with violent history shoved him at New York Capitol
A disability rights advocate made a complaint to New York State Police saying was shoved twice by state Senator Kevin Parker. Advocate Michael Carey says Parker got inches from his face Wednesday and yelled “I don't care” before grabbing him by his shoulders and shoving him twice. Carey said he approached Parker, a Brooklyn Democrat, before a committee meeting about cosponsoring a piece of legislation. Parker has had past trouble with the law. In 2005 he was arrested and charged for punching a traffic agent who gave him a ticket. He got arrested again in 2009 for chasing a news photographer.
