A New York City (NYC) former gangbanger who threw a grenade at the police over 40 years ago has had his charges overturned for the oddest of reasons.

According to Supreme Court Judge Gia Morris, the grenade Michael Bossett, then 24, threw at the cops in 1982 — and that led to him being convicted 5x over for attempted murder — was a dud, and he knew that beforehand.

“Morris said Bossett had previously thrown the inactive grenade at a friend and knew at the time of the incident with cops that it posed no danger,” according to the New York Post.

The throwing of the grenade at the cops happened when they raided his apartment on Dec. 15, 1980, while he was still knee deep in the gang world.

He reportedly jumped out with a gun and threw the grenade, prompting the cops to fire back and nonfatally wound him.

Despite his charges being overturned, he may still remain behind bars on several other charges, including an actual murder charge he copped for allegedly killing someone on Long Island.
