WOODHAVEN — A Woodhaven man was arraigned on criminal mischief charges after he allegedly broke his neighbor’s doorbell, a spokeswoman for Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said.

Jose Polanco, 43, of 87-13 94th St. in Woodhaven, was allegedly seen by his neighbor pulling the wires out of her doorbell and ripping it off the wall around 10:05 p.m. March 22, according to the criminal complaint.
