“I feel scared for homeless people who are out there right now. Because people are murdering them,” Johnny Grima tells ericlach.
of the incident that has been posted online, Grima can be heard and seen moments after Neely, pinned down by Penny and two other men, stopped moving. “Don’t put him on his back though, man. He might choke on his own spit,” Grima said. “Put him on his side.” Grima, who has described his own life at times as a “nightmare,” is distraught by what he witnessed on Monday. On Wednesday, he helped organize a vigil for Neely in the same subway station where he died.
“At first, we didn’t notice that the train stopped, because we were deep in conversation. We were talking about something, not paying attention to where we were at. Then we heard an announcement—the conductor saying for N.Y.P.D. to come to one of the cars. I looked up at that point and noticed that we were at Broadway-Lafayette. I said, ‘Oh, we got to transfer anyway. Let’s get off and go check out what’s going on over there.
“I saw Penny holding Neely by the neck, and another guy holding on to Neely, as if he was still resisting. Neely was staring off. But, honestly, at the moment, I didn’t know how long they had had him. The way they were holding him, it was as if they had just had the craziest fight or something. They’re holding on to him for dear life. Somebody was filming it, and this person finally said, ‘You gotta let him go.’ They finally let him go, and he just fell limp.
