The man who placed the late Jordan Neely in a chokehold for seven minutes on a NY Subway has been identified as an ex-Marine, Daniel Penny.
In stories by multiple outlets, former Marine Daniel Penny has been confirmed as the man who choked the late Jordan Neely in a subway earlier this week. In footage from the fatal incident, which occurred on New York City’s F train on Monday (May 3) around 2:15 p.m. EST, 24-year-old Penny is seen with his arm around Neely’s head and neck.
Independent journalist Juan Alberto Vázquez recorded the scene, which shows Penny and two other men holding Neely on the subway floor, which yielded at the Broadway-Lafayette station, until the 30-year-old stopped moving.
