Four migrants accused of attacking two NYPD officers near Times Square were released without bail by a Manhattan judge. However, it’s suspected that four of them might have fled, possibly heading for California by bus after giving fake names to a nonprofit aiding migrants. One of them was put on supervised release due to prior arrests but fleeing would likely violate his release terms. Another suspect was also released without bail. A third was arrested but not charged pending further investigation. One suspect was held on bail after being positively identified in the video footage of the attack. The decision to release the suspects without bail has sparked criticism from NYPD officials and calls for deportation from Governor Kathy Hochul.
