Mayor Eric Adams and the NYPD are hoping to pump the brakes on soaring Bronx car thefts by having motorists in the borough tag their vehicles for free.
The mayor, NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell and Chief of Department Jeffery Maddrey joined Chairman of the Association for a Better New York Steven Rubenstein to announce that some 500 Apple AirTags will be available for free for automobile owners within the confines of the 43rd Precinct in hopes of combatting a rash of Grand Larceny Auto crimes.
