Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic socialist and the presumed frontrunner in New York City’s mayoral race, is vowing to spend $1 billion to create the city Department of Community Safety, which he says would have social workers respond first, instead of NYPD officers, in certain cases.
He said decoupling the mental health response from a police response would ease pressure on NYPD officers, letting them focus more on what they signed up for and are trained to do, like respond to shootings, murders and other serious crimes.

A man was brutally stabbed in an apparent Brooklyn road rage incident on Monday morning because his vehicle was double-parked, authorities said.
According to police sources, officers from the 75th Precinct received a 911 call of an assault in progress at around 8:35 a.m. on Linden Boulevard and Pennsylvania Avenue in East New York.
Upon arriving at the scene, cops discovered a 44-year-old man with a stab wound to his abdomen. EMS rushed him to Brookdale Hospital, where he was treated for his wound and listed in stable condition.
Based on a preliminary investigation, police learned that the victim had double-parked his vehicle when another man became enraged and attacked him with a knife.
The suspect was last seen fleeing inside a white Mercedes traveling along Linden Boulevard, authorities said.
No arrests have been made, and the investigation remains ongoing.
Last month, the 75th Precinct saw a 2.9% increase in felony assaults, with 72 attacks taking place compared to 70 during the same time in 2024.

Today I held a Staff meeting – focused primarily on technological issues. The Russians are once again concentrating their strikes on the energy facilities. Of course, we have responses to this and will continue to respond, but the main priority is the stability of the system.
We also defined key objectives together with the Minister of Defense of Ukraine for the upcoming Ramstein meeting in the coming days. Strengthening air defense is the number one goal for this Ramstein and for our contacts in Europe and the U.S. in general. The Ukrainian army must be – and will be – consistently strong.
