Biden’s Migrant Wave Sends Hordes of Pickpockets to New York
by WARNER TODD HUSTON 13 Jun 2024
Big Apple residents thought of pickpocketing as a quaint crime from the old days nntil Joe Biden’s migrant wave. But as more illegal aliens cross the southern border and head to New York City, police say that the petty crime is experiencing a resurgence.
The New York Police Department (NYPD) has reported 781 pickpocketing complaints this year. This compares to 650 from this time last year, according to the New York Sun.
The NYPD added that the pickpockets are mostly from South America and that Colombia even has schools that teach how to perpetrate the crime.
“There is a core group of people that do this,” said former police commissioner of New York City, Raymond Kelly. And he said that the group in the Big Apple is “augmented by migrants.”
