纽约市警察局表示,其警员并未参与此次枪击事件,事发时也不在现场。
The NYPD said its officers were not involved in the shooting and were not at the scene when it happened.
当局尚未透露是谁开的枪、涉事的是哪家联邦机构,以及是什么引发了这起枪击事件。
Authorities have not said who fired the shots, which federal agency was involved or what led to the shooting.
市议员皮里娜·桑切斯(Pierina Sanchez)表示,她听到消息称移民及海关执法局(ICE)特工隔着汽车挡风玻璃开枪,并听到了多达七声枪响。Gothamist尚未独立核实这些说法。
City Councilmember Pierina Sanchez said she heard reports that ICE agents fired through a car's windshield and that as many as seven shots were heard. Gothamist has not independently verified those claims.
桑切斯说:“他们在恐吓我们的社区。他们太鲁莽了。我们要他们滚出这里。”
“They're terrorizing our communities,” Sanchez said. “They're reckless. We want them out of here.”The incident comes three days after eight elected officials representing the Bronx and Upper Manhattan sent a letter to Kingsbridge Associates, urging the company and Target to prohibit ICE agents from using the parking lot at 40 West 225th St. as a staging area.
就在这起事件发生的三天前,代表布朗克斯区和曼哈顿上城的八名民选官员曾致信金斯布里奇联合公司(Kingsbridge Associates),敦促该公司和塔吉特(Target)禁止移民及海关执法局特工将西225街40号的停车场用作集结区。
“Our communities are outraged,” Sanchez and seven other elected officials, including Councilmembers Carmen De La Rosa and Eric Dinowitz and U.S. Rep. Adriano Espaillat, wrote in the Oct. 5 letter. “This is private property operated by or for Target, where our neighbors shop, work, and bring their families.”The officials cited reports of ICE activity at the location. It was not immediately clear whether Thursday's shooting was connected to that activity.
桑切斯以及包括市议员卡门·德拉罗萨(Carmen De La Rosa)、埃里克·迪诺维茨(Eric Dinowitz)和美国众议员阿德里亚诺·埃斯帕拉特(Adriano Espaillat)在内的其他七位民选官员在10月5日的信中写道:“我们的社区对此感到愤怒。这是由塔吉特运营或为其运营的私人物业,我们的邻居在这里购物、工作和陪伴家人。”官员们在信中提及了有关该地点存在移民及海关执法局活动的报道。目前尚不清楚周四的枪击事件是否与该活动有关。
Sanchez, who represents the area, said the shooting occurred near the location where ICE agents have reportedly been staging.
代表该地区的桑切斯表示,枪击事件发生在据报道移民及海关执法局特工集结的地点附近。
Murad Awawdeh, president and CEO of the New York Immigration Coalition, called for an investigation into the shooting and the release of body camera footage.
纽约移民联盟(New York Immigration Coalition)总裁兼首席执行官穆拉德·阿瓦德(Murad Awawdeh)呼吁对这起枪击事件展开调查,并公布随身执法记录仪的视频。
“ICE’s violent tactics are a clear danger to all New Yorkers, as today’s shooting in a residential neighborhood demonstrates,” Awawdeh said. “We demand an immediate investigation into the shooting, the release of the body camera footage, and accountability for any ICE agents who used excessive force.”City Councilmember Tiffany Cabán also condemned the shooting and called for ICE to be abolished.
“美国移民和海关执法局(ICE)的暴力手段对所有纽约人来说都是明显的威胁,今天发生在居民区的枪击事件就证明了这一点,”阿瓦德说。“我们要求立即对这起枪击事件展开调查,公布执法记录仪的录像,并追究任何使用过度武力的ICE特工的责任。”市议员蒂芙尼·卡班也谴责了这起枪击事件,并呼吁废除ICE。
“We need to get ICE the hell out of our city, abolish ICE, and hold this administration accountable for the horrors they have inflicted on our immigrant communities,” she said in a statement.
“我们必须把ICE彻底赶出我们的城市,废除ICE,并让本届政府为他们给移民社区带来的恐怖行径付出代价,”她在一份声明中表示。美国国土安全部尚未立即回应置评请求。
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
