Overview

• Mayor Eric Adams said 1,000 additional NYPD officers will patrol Bronx hot spots under a targeted precision-policing surge starting this weekend.
• Four suspects — including two minors and adults identified as Robert Royal, 25, and Daeven Reyes, 20 — were arrested in the Haffen Park attack and charged with murder, attempted murder and gun possession.
• Police said more than 60 rounds were fired at the Baychester basketball event, six guns were recovered, one spectator was killed and a 17-year-old girl was critically wounded.
• Adams said crisis-management and mediation teams will seek meetings with local gang leaders in the coming days, potentially at Gracie Mansion.
• NYPD data shows 215 people have been shot in the Bronx so far this year, down 23.5% from the same period last year, yet officials say the borough still leads the city in shootings and murders.
