New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani has agreed to allow the NYPD to place most uniformed officers on 12-hour shifts during a stretch of major summer events tied to the FIFA World Cup, the July 4 holiday, and the nationwide America250 celebrations, marking a major test of his relationship with the city's police force.
NYPD revealed that police officers are expected to work extended tours from July 1 through July 7, with additional dates potentially added closer to the World Cup final later in July.
