• ICE Agent Fired 7 Rounds, Shoots Man In Neck In NYC (patch.com) — New Yorkers are grappling with questions about safety and accountability after an ICE officer fired seven shots, hitting 28-year-old Oscar Belgal in the neck during an arrest in the Bronx while his 5-year-old son sat in the SUV.

• NYC Bus Camera Enforcement Expands To 3 More Routes (patch.com) — New Yorkers who drive along the B1, B6, and Q65 routes will soon face automated bus-mounted cameras ticketing cars that block bus lanes, stops, or double-park.
