Violence on Memorial Day in Big Apple leaves a teen dead, at least 8 wounded

If Democrats were personally affected by their political decisions, they would never attempt to defund the police and there would be a huge wall at our southern border. But that's never the case and they still want to defund, and thus abolish, law enforcement in this country.

A 15-year-old kid was shot and killed and at least eight others were wounded in a crazy night of wild shootings across the city on Memorial Day.

The dead child and a 30-year-old man were found on the corner of Lexington Avenue and East 123 Street in East Harlem, according to police.

The boy, who wasn’t identified pending family notification, had been shot in the torso and was pronounced dead at Harlem Hospital.

The other man was struck in the right knee and was in stable condition but in horrific pain.

Earlier in the night, four people were wounded when shots rang out in Bushwick, Brooklyn, at around 8 p.m., according to the sources. This was black-on-black crime that the mainstream media doesn't mention and Black Lives Matter doesn't care a fig about.

Three of the victims were taken to hospitals, and one walked into the nearby 83rd Precinct station house. Their conditions were unknown.

The shooting was being probed as possibly gang-related, one source said.

On Staten Island, two men were shot shortly after 8 p.m. near 231 Steuben Street.

A 19-year-old was hospitalized after being hit once in the arm, and a 20-year-old was transported to the same facility with a leg wound. Their injuries are not considered serious. The shooter fled into a wooded area nearby.

After 11 p.m. in the Bronx, a man was shot near East 157th Street and Courtlandt Avenue, sources said.

New York City is a veritable shooting gallery. This is what you get when you have politicians who have armed security or are otherwise unaffected by street violence.

nd important part of that.”

Lightfoot said on Tuesday afternoon that her decision to continue to encourage people to wear masks was not based on distrust of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

“But I think their guidance last week regarding masks has people confused…We need clarification,” Lightfoot said. “We still have a long way to go to hit the critical mass (of vaccinations) or herd immunity. I don’t want people to have false confidence.”

“To say, ‘If you’re vaccinated, you don’t have to wear a mask,’ that’s great. But what about all of the other people who are out there that aren’t vaccinated?” Lightfoot added. “There’s no way to know that. So I think for the time being, most people are gonna continue to wear masks outside of their homes.”
