A New York man was arrested Saturday in connection with an unprovoked assault against Rick Moranis that occurred as the 67-year-old actor was walking near Central Park in October. New York City police said 35-year-old Marquis Ventura was arrested Saturday afternoon. In a tweet, police said that the suspect had been "apprehended and charged" due to the work of an "eagle-eyed sergeant." Thanks to an eagle-eyed sergeant from @NYPDTransit, this suspect has been apprehended and charged. Police didn't identify Moranis at the time, but Moranis's representative, Troy Bailey, confirmed the actor had been attacked.
