With Memorial Day just days away and the summer season around the corner, Mayor Zohran Mamdani and NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch outlined their plan to keep crime numbers down as temperatures rise.
“We are increasing uniformed officer presence in some of the highest crime parts of the city at some of the highest crime parts of the day. More than 2,600 uniformed officers will walk the beat in 72 zones across the five boroughs at night and in the early morning, times when we know violence tends to spike,” Mayor Mamdani said on Wednesday.
