Summary:

Fox interviews residents of the area for their opinions. The majority of the residents have said that crime has been more frequent and makes them feel unsafe at times. An example from the video is a bodega owner who witnessed a murder in his own bodega. It has called for improvement in the city by bodega activists.

Reflection:

The video shows the numerous amounts of crimes going on throughout New York City. As a New Yorker myself, I can agree with the people who were interviewed since crime has been more frequent. No matter the time of day, crimes just happen as if no consequences will be faced by the criminals. In broad daylight, these violent crimes are happening.

Quotation:

ā€œTo see that that’s definitely scary it’s alarming it’s it feels dangerous you know in reality I’m scared I’m working scared nothing could stop the shooters from entering the store on Sunday and nothing could in case they return.ā€. The quote comes from one of the interviewees in which they expressed their fear of crime in New York City. This is what the majority of New Yorkers believe.
