As a lifelong New Yorker, I am revolted by the idea of the militarization of our streets, Tisch said. As long as I have the honor of serving as the Police Commissioner of the city of New York, I will be very clear with anyone, with all of you, with the Attorney General, with whoever wants to talk to me about it, about the fact that the NYPD: We've got this, we don't need, or want the federal government's help here in that way.

A double stabbing in Brooklyn's Cypress Hills neighborhood early Friday left a 30-year-old man dead and another man hospitalized, police said. Officers from the 102nd Precinct in Queens responded just before 1 a.m. to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center after two men arrived there by private transportation with stab wounds, according to the NYPD. A 30-year-old man who had been stabbed in the armpit was later pronounced dead, police said.

BROOKLYN, NY - A thief made off with hundreds of dollars in cash and a wallet loaded with credit cards after snatching a 66-year-old man's coat inside a Sheepshead Bay mosque Thursday evening, police said. The brazen theft happened around 7:40 p.m. at the Islamic center located at 2812 Voorhies Avenue, where the unidentified suspect entered the mosque and grabbed the unattended coat before fleeing in an unknown direction. The victim's wallet inside the coat contained $700 in cash, six credit cards, and other personal items, officials said.

The attack took place around 5:23 p.m. on August 29 aboard a Queens-bound A train near the Hoyt-Schermerhorn Streets station, police said. According to authorities, a 31-year-old man boarded the crowded train and accidentally bumped into the suspect, who then became enraged. The suspect shouted something unintelligible before pulling a knife from his backpack. He then attacked, slashing the victim on the left arm and side of the head before fleeing the train at Hoyt-Schermerhorn Station and disappearing into the crowd, police said.

The violent arrest shocked bystanders, who said the NYPD cops completely overreacted to a low-level cycling offense. 'They were just fucking brutalizing the poor kid. Three cops to one person, the way they picked him up was crazy,' said Jesus, who works nearby and declined to share his last name. The heated incident comes as NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch has escalated enforcement against people on bikes and e-bikes this year by increasing low-level offenses to criminal summonses.

According to Dr. Katherine McKenzie, a trauma surgeon at Jamaica Hospital, Fisher suffered four gunshot wounds altogether. He had gunshot wounds to his left leg that injured his tibia bone, which is the main bone in your lower leg, between your knee and your ankle that provides support to that side of the body. He had injuries to his right wrist, Dr. McKenzie said. He sustained four gunshot wounds, two of them were through and through.

Six people are wanted in connection with a robbery last month in Brooklyn in which a 50-year-old man was beaten with an iron stick and had about $800 stolen, the NYPD said Thursday. The incident occurred on Friday, July 4, at approximately 4:30 a.m. in front of 827 59th Street, a residential building on the border of Borough Park and Sunset Park.

The men initially attempted to make their way into the residence through the front door but found it locked, the NYPD said. With the help of a neighbor, the officers were able to mount a fence and gain access to the yard of the burning home. Bodycam video of the rescue posted to the NYPD's Facebook page shows the officers using a chair to climb the fence.

Police from the 108th Precinct in Long Island City and Transit District 20 are looking for a suspect who allegedly stole a wallet from an R train rider in Woodside late last month.

A much older stranger stooped down, grabbed the wallet and fled on foot in an unknown direction, police said.
