Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday after day two of his hush-money trial visited the Harlem bodega where store clerk Jose Alba, 61, defended himself after being attacked by a violent customer in July 2022.
Alba was arrested and charged with second-degree murder after he stabbed the customer, Austin Simon, 35. Before that, Simon was captured on video going behind the counter and attacking him.
The charges were later dropped, and Alba is suing the city.
Trump was greeted by a crowd chanting, “Four more years!” in the Democrat stronghold of Manhattan.
