Police arrested 49-year-old Astoria, Queens resident Alexander Bonich in the killing of William Klinger, a native of Italy who was found in Astoria Park on Sunday with two gunshot wounds to the back of the head, according to the NYPD.
Klinger, a scholar in Croation history, had stayed at Mijo Mirkovic’s Ridgewood home for three days before moving to Queens late last week, Mirkovic told The Record. Klinger had moved to America to start a new life and was set to teach at Hunter College, Mirkovic told The Record.
