Report: 600-Plus Non-Patrol NYPD Officers to Help ‘Combat Violent Crime’

Katherine Hamilton 10 Feb 2022

More than 600 non-patrol New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers will be moved to the streets to help “combat violent crime,” the New York Post reported Wednesday.

The Post reportedly obtained two internal NYPD memos detailing its “enhanced deployment strategy” which is “aimed at putting more uniformed cops in visible posts.” The report states:

    The move comes as shootings continue to surge, with the latest police data as of Sunday showing gun violence up 30 percent this year compared to last, and nearly 60 percent from 2020. Overall, major crime is up almost 10 percent from pre-pandemic times, primarily driven by a spike in vehicle thefts, which, along with shootings, became a disturbing trend during COVID.
