In what New York City Mayor Eric Adams described as an “attack on our city,” one NYPD officer has been murdered and another critically injured by a felon with a lengthy rap sheet.
Fox News’s Kayleigh McEnany quote tweeted NYPD News, who reported, “Tonight, we mourn the loss of a hero officer — a son, husband, and friend.”
“Only 22 years old, Police Officer Jason Rivera was murdered in the line of duty. We vow to #NeverForget Jason as his fellow Finest vow to honor his tremendous legacy of service & the ultimate sacrifice,” they declared.
McEnany offered her condolences in the quote tweet and said, “My heart is broken to learn of the murder of NYPD Officer Jason Rivera, just 22 years old.”
“I will be praying for his family and for NYPD Officer Wilbert Mora, who is in critical condition. Please join me in prayer!” McEnany urged.

While Adams used harsh words to describe the attack and offered up his sympathies as well, he also used the incident to attack the second amendment.
“There are no gun manufacturers in our city. How are we removing thousands of guns off our streets and somehow they still find their way into the hands of killers?” Adams asked in a tweet.
Adams insisted as well, “We need Washington to act now to stop the flow of weapons into our cities.”
“We are all witnesses. To gun violence. To these murders. To the failures of leaders who have allowed these killers to get ahold of guns,” Adams asserted.
Adams added, “We won’t allow violence to divide our city. It will unite us — being united is the only way we can save our city.”
