Marshall Feiring, a tax lawyer, has been charged with assault after he allegedly knocked a bicyclist down by yanking a heavy-link chain that was wrapped on her shoulder in June. Courtney Fullilove was riding in Central Park around 108th Street and her lawyer says she was traveling with the light. She has also filed suit against him.  “I won’t get into the details, but the complaint does not nearly have all the facts of the incident,” Feiring’s lawyer said. (DNAinfo)
