New Yorkers are continuing to pick up the pieces in the aftermath of the mayhem at Union Square last week, with several local officials now calling for accountability and demanding answers in response to the chaos.
The lawlessness took place Friday afternoon when social media streamer Kai Cenat announced he would be giving away free PlayStation 5 consoles at Union Square, which sent hundreds of people flocking to the Manhattan park just after 3 p.m. Violence erupted leading to the arrest of at least 65 people, including Cenat.
