January 23, 2022
Mayor Eric Adams vowed Sunday “to roll out a real plan” this week to try to curb Big Apple gun violence after Friday’s shooting that left an NYPD rookie cop dead and another officer fighting for his life.
“This is a sea of crime that’s being fed by many rivers, and we need to dam each one of those rivers, and we have been unsuccessful [in doing] so throughout the years” said the mayor, a former NYPD captain, on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
“These crimes did not start during my administration, they have been here for far too long, in many parts of our community,” he said.
“I’m going to roll out a real plan this week when I speak to the New York public, and we’re going to go after the underlying reasons you’re seeing crime in our city.”
