Last weekend’s migrant-mob beating of two cops left us to wonder: How would a police officer report this under the City Council’s How Many Stops Act? Here’s our guess.
NYPD interaction report, 1/28/24:
Interaction 1: Female, black, older, asked how to transfer to go to Forest Hills from 42nd St., complained of rude and rowdy men loitering down the block.
Interaction 2: Male, 20-something. Based on the fist that hit me in the face, I believe Hispanic. Asked him and his friends to move along. A disagreement ensued. He disagreed by grabbing onto me. Disagreement proceeded to the ground.
Interaction 3: Kicked in the stomach by they/them — was unable to judge race, age or gender from position on ground.
Interaction 4: Male, 20-something, yelling in Spanish from a distance so let’s say Hispanic. He was yelling “Golpealo!” and miming a boxing motion. I did not speak to him. Does that count as an interaction? Do I have to log this?
Interaction 5: Male he was yelling to. This young man I did interact with as he struck the side of my face. Wearing jeans, boots, a parka and a baseball cap with a brim that’s never been bent with the sticker still on. Also Hispanic I assume because he understood “Golpealo” meant to hit me again.
Interaction 6: Kicked again by same person. Still unsure of preferred pronouns.
Interaction 7: Couple, white, older, hurried past trying not to make eye contact. Seemed like tourists but I shouldn’t judge.
Interaction 8: Explained to male, Hispanic, 20-something that he was under arrest and going to jail. He laughed and hit me again, saying that he’s new in town but knows that’s not true.
Interaction 9: Hispan-ish? Hard to tell, I was blacking out at this point.
Interaction 10: Along with partner (male, white, 30-something) managed to subdue a few of the attackers. Backup (male, black, 20-something; female, Asian, 20-something; female, black, 20-something; male, white, 20-something) chased after the others.
Interaction 11: Talked to bodega owner, male, older, Middle Eastern? Hispanic? about getting an ice pack for my face.
Interaction 12: Talked to the assistant district attorney (female, white, 30-something) and made suggestions about what they could be charged with. She laughed. Suspects let go without bail.
Interaction 13: Four male, Hispanic, 20-somethings waved and blew kisses as they walked out of court. Two hours later, still doing paperwork and wobbling a loose tooth or two. End of shift.
City Council review note: Officer interacted with more Hispanic males than any other race. Obvious racist. Recommend firing and defunding police department.
