New York City Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch condemned a violent snowball attack on officers in Washington Square Park on Friday, saying she “will not tolerate any attacks on my cops, period.”
This comes after Mayor Zohran Mamdani downplayed the incident as nothing more than a playful snowball fight. Tisch called the attack “criminal” and emphasised that officers who uphold department standards deserve respect and full protection, a sharp response that highlights rising tensions between city leadership and the NYPD.
