He shouted "I'll kill you all!" before driving into a group of people. All that's missing is the "Allan Akbar!" GLEN COVE, NY (UPI) -- A Virginia teen has been charged with driving his car into a crowd of people outside a bar that had just evicted him in a wealthy part of Long Island, N.Y. Sayed Khaled El-Waraky, 19, of Vienna, Va., was being held without bond Tuesday after the incident early Sunday morning in Glen Cove. Witnesses told police El-Waraky created a disturbance in the bar, and then threatened the bouncer, who threw him out, the New York Post reported. While getting into his Jaguar, the teen allegedly yelled 'I`ll kill you all,' before heading for the exit and suddenly making a U-turn. Four men in their early 20`s were struck. Monday, one was on a respirator, a second was in a medically induced coma, and the other two were hospitalized with head injuries and fractures, the report said. El-Waraky`s attorney, Ryan Brownyard told Newsday his client was reacting to 'a mob' that struck him, followed him outside and pounded on the Jaguar. El-Waraky has pleaded innocent to all charges, including depraved indifference for human life, but If convicted could face 25 years to life in prison. |

#3 Is he 19 or 24??? If he was 19 - he shouldn't have been in the bar. If I could, I'd tack on a hate crime charge. |

#2 Some additional from Newsday June 19th. "It was not clear what El-Waraky, an Egyptian national who police said was a student at American University in Washington, D.C., was doing on Long Island. Nassau police said El-Waraky, 24, had a previous DWI conviction in Virginia in 2003." |

#1 He shouted "I'll kill you all!" before driving into a group of people. All that's missing is the "Allan Akbar!" I wouldn't count it out. He was a victom according to his attorney. |
