Teens Behind Crime Spree Attack Halal Food Cart Worker in Times Square NYC . Last night near Times Square, a worker at a halal food cart was attacked by a group of teens linked to a series of assaults, robberies, and other crimes in the area. Police sources say officers often have to “babysit” this same group throughout the night—closely watching them to prevent trouble—but the moment cops look away, they’re back at it again. Food cart vendors tell me these groups have been harassing them for years, and despite countless complaints, nothing has been done. They say the teens have been terrorizing Times Square—targeting tourists, vendors, and workers just trying to make an honest dollar. NYPD sources tell me these groups have no respect for police. Officers have been dealing with them for quite some time, but there’s little they can do beyond babysitting them or reacting after crimes are committed. Police say the group is becoming more brazen by the day, showing no fear of authority or consequences. A few months ago, there was also a shooting in Times Square that sources believe was connected to this same crew. According to those familiar with the case, the incident stemmed from an ongoing beef with another group from the Bronx. At one point, while conducting an interview in the area, I personally encountered this same group when one of them tried to rob me. As I was filming, I suddenly felt someone tapping my pockets—when I turned around, I saw it was the same crew believed to be behind many of these local crimes. I confronted them, gave them a warning, and told them to take off before things escalated. By @LeeroyPress For licensing email viralnewsnyc@gmail.com

Row Hotel NYC Shelter Being Cleared Out Sooner Than Expected The Row Hotel in Midtown, a family-only migrant shelter, could shut down as early as New Year’s, sources say. Migrants are being told to pack up, each handed a MetroCard and two garbage bags. Many have also received letters from the city telling them they can reapply for new housing. Around 90% of those who reapply reportedly get placements, usually in other DHS shelters across the five boroughs — most often in the Bronx. Over the past several years, the Row and the surrounding Times Square area have been linked to multiple crimes, including drugs, stolen property, human trafficking, and violent incidents. Reports say guns were being sold outside the hotel, drugs cooked inside, and the site has served as a meeting spot for multiple gangs, including the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TDA). Some suspects involved in nearby robberies and assaults were at one point staying at the Row. During the peak of the migrant crisis, I heard multiple NYPD scanner reports about missing children connected to these shelters. Some were found, but others were never located — possibly victims of trafficking. Migrants at the Row have repeatedly told me that the few gang members there make all migrants look bad By @LeeroyPress For licensing email viralnewsnyc@gmail.com
This is pretty much every day in NYC. Anyone who has listened to the NYPD police scanner knows it . In fact last night was probably a slow night in crime due to the weather.

The city is about to start dealing with major issues again in midtown Manhattan with some of these gangs . Both cops and business owners are frustrated, and they are telling me the issues are getting worse by the day . People should take my warnings seriously. Let's not repeat people ignoring my warnings like last time, we saw that they got us . @NYPDPC
NYPD Level 3 Drills Becoming a Daily Occurrence Over the past few months, the NYPD has been calling Level 3 mobilization training drills almost every day. This is unusual.

It was an honor to march in the Queens Veterans Day parade earlier today, with my good friend Thomas Bullaro leading the way as grand marshal. Our veterans embody the very best of this country. We honor them every day, and thank them for their service and sacrifice.

Williamsburg & Bushwick Under Siege by Migrant Gang Robbers Williamsburg and Bushwick are facing a wave of violent, organized robberies—and it’s worse than most people want to admit. Migrant gang crews are riding in packs on scooters, swooping up from behind to snatch chains, phones, and wallets. Sometimes they jump off their scooters, push you to the ground, and demand everything you’ve got. Some even carry guns, and they’re getting bolder every day. Sources tell me these crews are connected to the Tren de Aragua (often abbreviated “TdA”), a Venezuelan transnational criminal organization. They’re also tied to the Trinitarios gang, and there are other migrant gangs—including an anti‑TdA gang—active in the mix, making the scene even more unpredictable. People are working hard to keep this kind of reporting quiet—acting like these gangs are gone. Don’t be fooled. They’re very much still out there, hitting the streets harder and more brazen than ever. Just recently, an NYPD officer’s girlfriend was thrown to the floor, bruised, and robbed for her chain. Williamsburg and Bushwick residents: stay alert. These crews aren’t slowing down. By @LeeroyPress For licensing email viralnewsnyc@gmail.com
In other words. Make sure no cars can drive in the city....
“Mayor-elect Mamdani has committed to fully staffing DOT to give them the leeway to pursue the streets that New Yorkers really deserve.”

If you think TDA terrorists are not operating out of NYC, I have a huge surprise for you. They're extremely active in NYC, and I have a pretty good idea where they are and what they're up to, and yes, they are still taking advantage of vulnerable migrants.
