On April 11, two 17-year-old boys in the Bronx were shot – and one died – following an argument at a subway station. Much to the surprise of The Post’s Kevin Sheehan, Bronx Borough President Vanessa Gibson admitted at a presser: “We know we are dealing with gang violence and crew violence.”
She even defined “crews” as subchapters of gangs living in different housing projects. Gibson’s “off-script” message appeared to go against the narrative that firearm violence is the result of “too many illegal guns” in New York City. An arrest was made in the fatal shooting, although due to the suspect’s age, the name will likely not be released to the public.
