On Friday, an NYPD spokeswoman said that a dispute over a parking spot allegedly resulted in a man being punched after getting into the space Baldwin wanted.



“Upon arrival, officers observed a 49-years-old male conscious and alert with injury to his left jaw,” the NYPD said in a statement.

The man was taken to a local hospital and is listed in stable condition, officials said.
