A Queens man is under arrest after he hired a man to attack a teenage girl he was romantically involved with, according to sources. The hired man allegedly ended up assaulting the wrong girl.
Wilson Lai, 25, has been charged with a slew of counts including rape, assault, conspiracy, and criminal sex act, according to police.
Investigators said he was involved with the slashing of the girl near 147th Street and 13th Avenue near Whitestone in December.
Sources said Lai hired the man seen running off in the surveillance video above, 36-year-old Devon Berkley of Allentown, Pennsylvania, to attack the girl after Lai's relationship with her went sour.
But Berkley allegedly assaulted the wrong girl, a 16-year-old exchange student. Berkley is also in custody.
The victim was treated for cuts to her neck and face.
