“Tonight, I join all New Yorkers in thanking these fearless officers for their service and wish both a speedy recovery. Violence against our police officers is a horrible and deplorable crime that is an assault against all New Yorkers and those who are responsible should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Every day, New York’s police officers risk their lives keeping New Yorkers safe and we are very grateful for their service, dedication and commitment. I urge any New Yorker with information to call 1-800-COP-SHOT.”
