Today's Big Stories

1. Arrest made in brick attacks at Manhattan gay bar

A 34-year-old man was arrested Tuesday for allegedly throwing bricks and a rock at the window of a gay nightclub in Hell’s Kitchen three times last week, the NYPD said.

Sean Kuilan, who police said lived around the corner from the bar, allegedly threw bricks at the front window of VERS on Ninth Avenue on Nov. 13 and 15. On Nov. 19 — hours before a gunman opened fire at an LGBTQ club in Colorado, killing five and injuring 25 — police said he returned and threw a rock at the window again.

2. New York's pension fund dipped in value amid volatile market

New York's common retirement fund has lost billions of dollars in value since April, a reflection of the ongoing troubles facing the financial markets. 

State Comptroller Tom DiNapoli's office on Tuesday announced the fund was valued at $232.2 billion at the end of the second fiscal quarter on Sept. 30, posting a negative rate of return at 3.85%. Still, despite the ongoing challenges, DiNapoli said the fund remains built to withstand the economic uncertainty. 

3. City Council approves $2B Innovation QNS project after contentious negotiations

The City Council voted Tuesday to approve Innovation QNS, a $2 billion development that will bring 3,200 apartments to Astoria, Queens, after months of contentious debate over the project’s share of affordable units. 

Councilwoman Julie Won, who represents the area, received both praise and pushback from elected officials in her borough for pressing the developers in recent months to double the affordable units. The project is now set to have 45% of its total apartments be below market rate, including 825 units reserved for families considered “extremely” or “very low” income. 

4. Supreme Court OKs handover of Trump tax returns to Congress

The Supreme Court on Tuesday cleared the way for the imminent handover of former President Donald Trump's tax returns to a congressional committee after a three-year legal fight.

The court, without comment, rejected Trump's plea for an order that would have prevented the Treasury Department from giving six years of tax returns for Trump and some of his businesses to the Democratic-controlled House Ways and Means Committee.

5. 'Clean Slate' supporters renew effort for criminal record sealing in New York

Supporters of a measure that would seal criminal conviction records in New York are making a renewed effort to have the stalled legislation gain passage in the Democratic-controlled state Legislature this year after a campaign season that heavily focused on criminal justice law changes in New York.

The bill would seal criminal records several years after conviction and is meant to boost employment and housing opportunities for people who have finished their sentences. The measure, known as the Clean Slate Act, has been sought for the last several years in Albany, but last-minute opposition has doomed its chances of passage.
