NEW YORK — A second migrant committed suicide in a New York City homeless shelter, sources said Monday.
The 26-year-old man was found in a bathroom by his partner in a Queens shelter on Wednesday, according to a report by NBC News. He was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Mayor Eric Adams’ office referred a New York Daily News inquiry to the city Department of Social Services, which described the death of the Venezuelan migrant “absolutely heartbreaking.”
