Police Officers Hurt in Levittown Domestic Dispute

Three residents were arrested in the incident.

Three Levittown residents were arrested Wednesday after an altercation led to two police officers needing medical treatment.

According to cops, at 10:12 p.m., Second Precinct officers responded to a domestic incident on Gun Lane. Antonio Marinaccio, 52, was involved in a verbal altercation with his sister, Gloria Gazzola, 51, at their home. 

Police said Marinaccio kicked the front door off its hinges. Cops attempted to place him under arrest, and two officers were injured during the scuffle. Gazzola and her mother, Catherine Marinaccio, 76, were also arrested for interfering in the arrest.

The two officers were transported to a local hospital, where one was treated for a shoulder injury and the other for a hand injury. Both were later released.

Marinaccio has been charged with fourth-degree criminal mischief, two counts of second-degree assault and resisting arrest. Gazzola and Catherine Marinaccio have been charged with second-degree obstructing governmental administration. Their arraignments are scheduled for Thursday at First District Court in Hempstead.
