Marquis Ventura,35, was arrested on Saturday afternoon after transit officers recognized him from wanted pictures and surveillance footage, TheNew York Daily News reported. Ventura is awaiting arraignment on second-degree assault charges—his seventh assault charge of the year, according to officials.
