AND WHY YOUNG KIDS WERE
TARGETED.
THE DEVELOPMENTS IN NEW YORK
CITY, TED WILLIAMS JOINS US
RIGHT NOW.
IT OCCURS AT THE TIME, TED, THAT
WE’RE GOING TO GET MORE DETAILS
ON THE CULPRIT BEHIND THAT
ATTACK ON A GOLDMAN SACHS WORKER
ON A TRAIN ON SUNDAY THAT WAS
INDISCRIMINATELY SHOT.
HE TURNED HIMSELF IN TODAY.
WE’LL LEARN MORE ABOUT THAT
HAPPENED AND WHY HE’S TURNING
HIMSELF IN RIGHT NOW AND NOW ON
THIS TEXAS SHOOTING.
DESPERATE INCIDENTS, VERY
DIFFERENT CONDITIONS.
A REMINDER THAT CRIME IS OUT OF
CONTROL.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
>> ABSOLUTELY.
LET ME IF I COULD JUST ADDRESS
THE UVALDE, TEXAS SHOOTING AT
THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL WHERE THEY
SAID THAT AS OF NOW IT’S BEING
REPORTED THAT TWO ARE DEAD,
MEANING STUDENTS, AND AT LEAST
14 ARE WOUNDED.
IT’S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS
ALL STARTED WITH THE BORDER
PATROL.
THE BORDER PATROL WAS CHASING
AFTER THIS GUY.
THIS GUY GOT TO THE ELEMENTARY
SCHOOL AND OPENED FIRE AT THE
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, WHICH IS VERY
SAD IN AND OF ITSELF THERE.
I CAN ALSO TELL YOU WHEN IT
COMES TO THE NEW YORK SITUATION,
THIS IS SUCH A TRAGEDY.
THIS MAN, DANIEL ENRIQUEZ WAS ON
THE SUBWAY, ON HIS WAY TO A
BRUNCH.
THIS GUY, ANDREW ABDULLAH, 25
YEARS OLD, A CAREER CRIMINAL,
WAS PACING BACK AND FORTH.
IT’S ALLEGED THAT HE PULLED A
GUN, SHOT THIS MAN, ENRIQUEZ, IN
THE CHEST.
AND THEN RUSHED OFF THE SUBWAY,
GAVE THE GUN TO A VAGRANT
UPSTAIRS.
HE THEN SOLD IT TO A THIRD PARTY
FOR $10.
AND THEN THAT THIRD PARTY TURNED
IT IN TO THE POLICE.
THE CRIME UNFORTUNATELY RIGHT
NOW ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY IS
JUST OFF THE CHARTS.
IT’S SO SAD THAT THESE INCIDENTS
ARE HAPPENING.
>> Neil: IN THE NEW YORK
INCIDENT, WE KNOW HE TURNED
HIMSELF IN.
HE APPARENTLY WASN’T TARGETING
THIS GUY.
IT WAS INDISCRIMINATE.
THERE’S WAS TALK BY ERIC ADAMS
THAT DEVICES ARE NEEDED TO SHOW
IF YOU HAVE A GUN.
BUT WE KEEP HAVING THESE
INCIDENTS IN SUBWAY STATIONS TO
SAY ENOUGH ABOVE GROUND WHERE
CRIME IS AT HIGHS.
THIS IS GETTING BEYOND CONTROL
AND BEYOND SENSELESS NOW.
>> IT IS.
WHAT IS NEEDED IS MORE LAW
ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE I’M CLEAR.
I DIDN’T SAY LESS.
I MEAN MORE LAW ENFORCEMENT
OFFICERS TO SATURATE THESE
NEIGHBORHOODS.
THE SATURATE THE SUBWAY SUM.
YOU KNOW, IT WAS ONLY, NEIL,
ABOUT A MONTH AGO THAT WE HAD
TEN PEOPLE SHOT IN THE SUBWAY
SYSTEM.
CRIME IS OFF THE CHART IN
NEW YORK.
I AGREE WITH THE SYSTEM -- I
SAID DAVE ENRIQUEZ.
HIS SISTER SAID THAT CITIZENS
CANNOT FEEL SAFE IN THE CITY OF
NEW YORK IN THIS IMMEDIATE TIME.
>> Martha: THEY’RE LEARNING THIS
ALLEGED SHORTER, ANDREW
ABDULLAH, 25 YEARS OLD, HAD TWO
OPEN CRIMINAL CASES IN NEW YORK
CITY.
ONE IN BROOKLYN, WE UNDERSTAND,
TED, FOR A SEPARATE INCIDENT
STEMMING FROM A VEHICLE THEFT
AND THE OTHER FROM AN ALLEGED
ASSAULT.
HE HAD A LONG TRACK RECORD AND
WAS OBVIOUSLY RELEASED IN BOTH
OF THESE PRIOR INCIDENTS IF
WE’RE TO BELIEVE THESE EARLY
REPORTS.
WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT?
>> THAT IS WHAT IS FRUSTRATING
THE CITIZENS OF NEW YORK.
BEFORE THE INK IS DRY ON THESE
ARRESTS, THESE BOTTOM FEEDERS
ARE BACK OUT ON THE STREET.
THE QUESTION THAT NEEDS TO BE
ANSWERED WITH THIS GUY, ANDREW
ABDULLAH, WHY WAS HE OUT BACK ON
THE STREETS OF NEW YORK.
AGAIN, SINCE 2015, THIS GUY HAS
BEEN ARRESTED OVER 19 TIMES IN
THAT CITY.
HERE IT IS, HE’S ON A SUBWAY
WITH A GUN WHERE HE SHOOTS THIS
MAN IN AN UNPROVOKED SHOOTING
SUNDAY.
A SAD SITUATION.
>> Neil: HE TURNED HIMSELF IN.
YOU DON’T SEE THAT ALL THE TIME.
HE WAS WELL-COVERED AND
UNRECOGNIZABLE IN THE HOODIE.
WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT?
>> WELL, YOU KNOW, IT’S THE WAY
HE TURNED HIMSELF IN.
FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD IS
THAT HE CAME TO THE STATION WITH
A MINISTER IN A ROLLS-ROYCE.
IT’S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT HE
WAS TRYING TO NEGOTIATE THAT HE
TURNED HIMSELF IN TO THE MAYOR,
ERIC ADAMS, AND THAT DID NOT
HAPPEN.
YOU KNOW, THE FACT ABOUT IT IS,
AT SOME STAGE OR ANOTHER, YOU’LL
PROBABLY HEAR THIS GUY WAS
MENTALLY ILL.
BUT HE WASN’T MENTALLY ILL
ENOUGH TO SHOOT THIS GUY.
HE WASN’T MENTALLY ENOUGH TO RUN
UP TO THE SUBWAY, TO THE TOP OF
THE STATION.
HE WASN’T MENTALLY ILL ENOUGH
WHERE HE WOULD GIVE THE GUN TO
SOMEBODY ELSE AND UNCOVER
HIMSELF.
I’M SUPPLY SAYING THE CITIZENS
IN NEW YORK AND ALL OVER THIS
COUNTRY IS FRUSTRATED WITH THESE
VIOLENT KILLINGS.
ALL WE NEED TO DO NOW, NEIL IS
LOOK AT UVALDE, TEXAS.
SOME KID, SOME KIDS, NEIL, ARE
NOT GOING HOME TO THEIR
FAMILIES.
YOU HAVE OTHER KID THAT WERE IN
THE HOSPITAL AS A RESULT OF GUN
VIOLENCE.
>> Martha: .
>> Neil: YEAH, IT BEYOND
INCREDIBLE.
THEY’RE JUST KIDS.
NO RHYME OR REASON FOR ANY OF
IT.
TED, I REGRET WE HAVE TO GET
