纽约市长埃里克·亚当斯(Eric Adams)周日概述了该市在发生一系列引人注目的暴力事件后将如何应对,其中包括周五发生的枪击事件,导致一名警察死亡,另一名警察为他的生命而战。

亚当斯在“国情咨文”节目中告诉 CNN Dana Bash,该市将“立即”恢复“更新版本的改良便衣反枪支部队”,这是他在竞选时呼吁采取的步骤。

便衣警务单位被一些人批评为过时的警务做法,纽约警察局在 2020 年重新分配了许多这样的警察。然而,在新的一年上任的亚当斯表示,他的团队“已经进行了适当的分析和现在我们要部署它。”

亚当斯没有提供有关便衣单位或他们将如何运作的细节,但表示他的政府将在本周向纽约人介绍一项计划。上个月在接受 CNN 采访时,即将上任的纽约警察局局长 Keechant Sewell 表示,这样一个部门将主要关注枪支犯罪。

上周末,22 岁的纽约警察局警官杰森·里维拉 (Jason Rivera) 在周五晚上在哈莱姆区的一起家庭事件中被枪杀后,亚当斯一直在强调需要解决不断上升的犯罪和枪支暴力问题。 27岁的威尔伯特·莫拉警官情况危急,接受了手术。亚当斯周日表示,他“主要还是处于同样的状态”。

他们是自今年年初以来被枪杀的第四和第五名纽约警察局官员,尽管纽约警察局官员并不是枪支暴力的唯一受害者:一名 11 个月大的女孩被击中脸部,在交火中陷入布朗克斯。周三的枪击事件使她处于危急状态。

未来一周推出的更大计划将致力于解决“你在我们城市看到犯罪的根本原因,”亚当斯说;其中,自周五枪击事件以来,枪支流入市政府官员的事件备受关注。据当局称,嫌疑人使用的枪是 2017 年在巴尔的摩被盗的 Glock 45,他在试图逃跑时被第三名纽约警察局警官开枪击中,目前情况危急。

“我们必须阻止枪支流动,”市长说。 “我们正在从街道上拆除数千支枪,似乎我们从街上拆除的每支枪都有五支枪进来。这是不可接受的。”

近几个月来,犯罪率一直在上升,尽管还没有接近 1990 年代初期的水平。根据纽约警察局的数据,11 月,纽约市发布数据的最近一个月,犯罪率比去年同期增加了 21.3%。

亚当斯表示,除了重新引入便衣警察部队外,该市还将与精神卫生专业人员合作,以应对地铁系统中的事件。

亚当斯的宣布是在 40 岁的 Michelle Alyssa Go 在被推到时代广场第 42 街地铁站的一列进站火车轨道后死亡一周多后,Sewell 专员称这是一起“无端”事件。

亚当斯说,警察和心理健康专业人员将作为一个团队合作,以“消除我们城市地铁系统中明显存在的疾病”。市长补充说,这些团队将一起“更加积极主动,而不仅仅是被动”。

“当我们知道他们首先在车站时,我们不应该等待有人采取危险行动,”他说。 “当你在那里看到一个危险的人时,将立即部署心理健康专业人员,该人将得到适当的护理,并从我们的地铁系统中移除。”

New York's response to violent incidents will include reinstating plainclothes officer unit, mayor says

New York Mayor Eric Adams on Sunday outlined how the city will respond following a series of high-profile violent incidents, including a shooting Friday that left one police officer dead and another fighting for his life.

The city will "immediately" reinstate a "newer version of modified plainclothes anti-gun unit," Adams told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union," a step he'd called for while campaigning.

Plainclothes policing units have been criticized by some as an outdated policing practice, and the New York Police Department had reassigned many such officers in 2020. However, Adams, who took office in the new year, said his team "has done the proper analysis and now we're going to deploy that."

Adams did not offer details about the plainclothes units or how they will operate but said his administration would introduce a plan to New Yorkers this week. Speaking with CNN last month, incoming NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell said such a unit would focus mostly on gun crimes.

Adams has spent the weekend underscoring the need to address rising crime and gun violence after NYPD Officer Jason Rivera, 22, was fatally shot while responding to a domestic incident in Harlem Friday evening. Officer Wilbert Mora, 27, was in critical condition and underwent surgery. Adams said Sunday he remained "still primarily in the same condition."

They're the fourth and fifth NYPD officers to be shot since the start of the year, though NYPD officers have not been the only victims of gun violence: An 11-month-old girl was shot in the face, caught in crossfire in the Bronx. The shooting Wednesday left her in critical condition.

The larger plan rolling out in the coming week will work to address "the underlying reasons you're seeing crime in our city," Adams said; among them the flow of guns into the city officials have spotlighted since Friday's shooting. According to authorities, the gun used by the suspect -- who was shot by a third NYPD officer as he tried to flee and remains in critical condition -- was a Glock 45 stolen in Baltimore in 2017.

"We have to stop the flow of guns," the mayor said. "We are removing thousands of guns off our streets, and it appears as though for every gun we remove from the street, five are coming in. That is unacceptable."

The crime rate has been on the rise in recent months, though it is not near the rate of the early 1990s. In November, the most recent month for which the city has released data, the crime rate has increased by 21.3% from the same period last year, per the NYPD.

Aside from the reintroduction of plainclothes police units, Adams said the city would partner mental health professionals with police personnel to respond to incidents in the subway system.

Adams' announcement comes just over a week after 40-year-old Michelle Alyssa Go died after being pushed onto the tracks of an incoming train at the Times Square-42nd Street subway station in what Commissioner Sewell said was an "unprovoked" incident.

Police and the mental health professionals will work as a team, Adams said to "move out the disorder that's clearly in the subway system in our city." Together, these teams will be "more proactive and not just reactive," the mayor added.

"We should not wait for someone to carry out a dangerous action when we know they are on the station in the first place," he said. "Immediately when you see a dangerous person there, mental health professionals will be deployed and that person will receive the proper care and removed from our subway system."
