  • On Friday at approximately 7:30 p.m. In Times Square, two NYPD officers were ambushed and attacked by about a dozen young gang members while responding to a robbery.
  • The assault occurred amid an attempted wolfpack-style robbery, involving 11 suspects linked to Los Diablos de 42, a violent subset of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang, with five arrested suspects and more at large.
  • The suspects, ranging from 12 to 19 years old and including repeat offenders, used scooters, basketballs, glass bottles, and rocks as weapons during a deliberate and planned attack against the officers.
  • NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch called the incident "organized violence" and stated all arrested face serious charges including assault and inciting a riot, while emphasizing the youngest suspect was only 12 years old.
  • City officials condemned the attack as intolerable, highlighted ongoing concerns about gang recruitment of minors, officer safety in high-profile locations, and pledged continued law enforcement efforts to prosecute offenders fully.
