Alvin Bragg — Nothing to Brag About
5th June 2024
Saturday afternoon, a Duane Reade security guard was severely stabbed and a shopper threatened by a knife-wielding thief at one of the chain’s midtown Manhattan stores.
Roughly 12 hours later, a straphanger was shot in the hand as his train pulled into the 86th street and Lexington Avenue platform.
That’s life in Manhattan, where transit crime, assault and shoplifting are raging.
