When Nick DiCostanzo was growing up on the Island of Ischia on the Coast of Naples in Italy, his earliest memories where of the simple seaside meals he would enjoy with his family, farm-to-table and of course sea-to-table. As proprietor of Mamma Francesca in New Rochelle for nearly 40 years, located on the banks of Long Island Sound with 6-story views of the ‘Queen City’s’ seafaring boat clubs, this culinary philosophy still holds true.

Bus Driver ‘Maced’ in Bronx

Police are looking for this woman in connection with an attack on a bus driver in the Bronx.

BRONX - Police are looking for a psycho straphanger who “maced” a bus driver near the Kingsbridge Armory in the Bronx. 



Cops say a verbal dispute between a rider and a bus driver turned violent when the commuter sprayed the driver in the face with an unknown substance. Now cops have released surveillance video in an attempt to catch the suspect. 







At around 10:48 am on September 23, an unidentified woman was riding the BX32 bus near West 195th Street and Reservoir Avenue. Investigators said the straphanger was riding with a young child when she approached the driver. The passenger started off with asking a question but investigators said the conversation made a dramatic turn as the commuter began arguing with the bus driver. Suddenly the woman pulled something out of her pocket and sprayed the bus driver in the face. 





The attacker fled the bus on foot. 


The attacked bus driver was rushed to St. Barnabas Hospital where she was listed in stable condition.


It is unclear at this time what the substance was that the attacker sprayed in the driver’s face. 


The NYPD surveillance released video from inside the bus which shows the suspect. Despite the video showing the woman with her head down in her phone, a few clear still photos from the video show the moment she looks up to yell at the bus driver. 




Cops are hoping someone recognizes the suspect and calls. 


Anyone with information should call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/ or on Twitter @NYPDTips. 


All calls remain confidential.
