N.Y. Man Allegedly Points Gun at 6-Year-Old Over Candy Mix-Up: Police

“I think what happened yesterday was totally a misunderstanding and a mistake,” Wen’s attorney William Zou told WLNY-TV. “He and his family have been terrorized recently by constant banging on his door. He just opened the door, reacted strongly, told the person to get away from his property. By the time he realized it was a kid, he started to regret.”

Wen pleaded not guilty at his recent arraignment. He was ordered to undergo a mental health evaluation and attend an anger management class, officials said.

He is due back in court on Nov. 13.
