De Blasio calls actions of defiant SI bar owner ‘disturbing’

Mayor Bill de Blasio on Monday said allegations that the co-owner of Staten Island s defiant Autonomous Zone bar rammed a sheriff with his car were extraordinarily disturbing.

I think his actions are extraordinarily disturbing. I think they re disgusting, de Blasio said of Danny Presti, the co-owner of Mac s Public House in Grant City, during a City Hall press briefing.

Presti was arrested Sunday for allegedly driving into a sheriff s sergeant who was trying to apprehend him for illegally keeping his bar open in violation of COVID-19 restrictions.
