A Manhattan teenager inspired by the reel life anti-social character played by Brad Pitt in “Fight Club” is now in real trouble – he’s charged with bombing an Upper East Side Starbucks as part of an attack on corporate America, New York City police said Wednesday.
Kyle Shaw, 17, was arrested outside his Chelsea building Tuesday night and charged with arson, criminal mischief and criminal possession of weapon.
Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said Shaw is not connected to the still-unsolved bombings at the Mexican and British consulates or to a bombing at the Times Square military recruitment station.
