The man in the 8-ball jacket seen slapping a belligerent woman on the F train in an online video that went viral had all charges against him dropped Monday afternoon after authorities determined he was acting in self-defense, his lawyer told The Post.
Jorge Pena spent four nights in jail after the brawl, which was widely viewed after footage was posted to YouTube, before making his $1,000 bail early Tuesday.
A law enforcement source confirmed that all the charges against Pena were dismissed.
