A Brooklyn man pleaded not guilty to assault charges in the brutal biker gang beatdown of a Manhattan motorist last month.
Kaliq Douglas, 28, was the eighth biker arrested in the melee that began on the West Side Highway and ended with the terrifying attack on SUV driver Alexian Lien in front of his wife and young daughter.
Douglas was one of the bikers who helped pull Lien out of the vehicle and hit him “at least once,” according to the assistant district attorney handling the case.
Douglas pleaded not guilty to assault and gang assault charges and was released on $25,000 bail.
His lawyer, Morty Katz, slammed the charges and the DA’s initial request for $100,000 cash bail.
“The YouTube doesn’t tell the whole story. The DA is playing up to the media,” he said.
