Eric Adams is set to announce a plan aimed at curbing gun violence, in the wake of the shooting that left a rookie NYPD cop dead and another officer in grave condition.
“We’re going to roll out a smart way of policing, put in place again a modified version of a plainclothes anti-gun unit that’s going to go after those known shooters and people who are actually creating the devastation in our city,” he said Sunday on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”
The new units, to be labeled “Neighborhood Safety Teams,” will replace the uniformed Public Safety Teams in areas where shootings have been most common, according to a memo that Chief of Department Ken Corey sent out earlier this month.NYPD Officer Wilbert Mora was wounded in the police shooting.
