New York Detectives Endowment Association President Scott Munro said the viral video was not harmless fun:
MUNRO: “What we saw in Washington Square Park today was not harmless fun — it was a deliberate, outrageous, and dangerous attack on uniformed police officers. The Detectives’ Endowment Association is calling on Mayor Mamdani and District Attorney Bragg to ensure every individual responsible for this illegal behavior is prosecuted. No free pass. No get out of jail free card.
Make no mistake: detectives will do what they always do. They will identify those involved and they will apprehend them.
Our men and women in blue deserve to be safe. They deserve to be protected. And they deserve to be respected.
They earn it every single day.”
Even NYC Mayor Mamdani said, “treat them with respect.”
I’ve seen the videos of kids throwing snowballs at NYPD officers in Washington Square Park.
Officers, like all city workers, have been out in a historic blizzard, keeping New Yorkers safe and cars moving.
Treat them with respect. If anyone’s catching a snowball, it’s me.
