Marine Daniel Penny was booked late Friday morning on a second-degree manslaughter charge for placing homeless man Jordan Neely in a fatal chokehold on an F train.

Penny, 24, surrendered at the 5th Precinct in Lower Manhattan just after 8 a.m., 11 days after Neely’s death that sparked protests and calls for accountability.

Shortly before 11 a.m., Penny, dressed in a dark suit and black sneakers, was led out of the precinct with his hands cuffed behind his back.

He looked straight ahead and kept mum in response to questions being shouted at him by reporters.
