An NYPD spokesperson says that on March 8, police were called to a dispute with an 'intoxicated and disorderly male who was threatening staff members.'
Wednesday, March 13, 2024 2:15AMsays NYPD officers took "appropriate action" during a violent altercation with a migrant in a city-operated shelter in the borough of Queens that was caught on camera.
"That's abuse," the person filming the video can be heard saying, in Spanish. "Where are the human rights?"The video also shows a woman attempting to insert herself between the officers and Cordero in an apparent attempt to stop them from subduing him before an officer pulls her away. Police say 22-year-old Andrea Parrar, whom The New York Times identified as Cordero's wife, was arrested for interfering with the arrest.
Police told ABC News that the Administration for Children's Services was notified regarding the children. Mayor Adams' office told ABC News that the family was reunited on Monday and were given a new placement in Brooklyn after requesting to be moved to a new shelter. At a pre-scheduled press conference on Tuesday, Mayor Adams said he had spoken with Police Commissioner Edward Caban about the incident and believed the officers acted appropriately.
