A NYC taxi driver was hit with a hate crime for allegedly beheading a statue depicting a young Jesus outside a Queens Catholic church, prosecutors said.
Jamshaid Choudhry, 44, of Hollis, was arrested Thursday night and charged with criminal mischief as a hate crime and other related crimes for allegedly decapitating the statue outside of the Holy Family Roman Catholic Church in Fresh Meadows on June 30.
