Seven suspects accused of participating in the infamous assault on two NYPD officers outside a Midtown migrant shelter last month have been indicted, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and Mayor Eric Adams announced Thursday.
According to Bragg, the grand jury indictment came after detectives thoroughly reviewed various video footage, including the officers’ body-worn cameras, along with witness interviews to identify the perpetrators. The indictments came weeks after several of the suspects were released on their own recognizance upon arraignment, something which infuriated police brass and many observers throughout the city.
