国土安全部部长马克韦恩·穆林周五批评了纽约市市长佐兰·马姆达尼对近期美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）在该市发生的一起枪击事件所作出的回应。穆林称，马姆达尼的公开言论十分危险，其表现不过是“政治作秀”。穆林周五在新闻发布会上表示：“我讲的是事实，而市长则带着政治色彩发言。他的言论危险且煽动敌意，毫无助益。”
Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin bashed New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Friday for his response to a recent Immigration and Customs Enforcement(ICE) involved shooting in the city. Mullin said Mamdani’s public statements are dangerous and that he is performing “political theater.”“I am speaking facts, the mayor speaks with political tone,” Mullin said at a press conference Friday. “His words are dangerous and incite hostility, it doesn’t help.”
周四，ICE在一名无证移民驾车时朝其颈部开枪，该移民后来被确认为来自多米尼加共和国的28岁男子奥斯卡·贝尔加尔，当时车内还有一名五岁儿童。贝尔加尔有犯罪记录，已被送往当地一家医院，而儿童安然无恙，与家人在一起。马姆达尼在周四晚间的新闻发布会上强烈谴责了ICE，并称其使用的执法手段毫无解释。
ICE shot an undocumented immigrant — later identified as Oscar Belgal, a 28-year-old from the Dominican Republic — in the neck Thursday while he was driving with five-year-old child in the car. Belgal, who has a criminal record, was taken to an area hospital and the child remains unharmed and with a family member. Mamdani railed against ICE at a press conference Thursday night and said there was no explanation for the tactics used.
市长表示，他周四晚曾与特朗普总统及穆林通话，试图促成贝尔加尔获释，但未获成功。穆林称，特朗普总统同意将贝尔加尔移交给纽约市警察局（NYPD）看管，前提是警方愿意对其提起诉讼，但马姆达尼并未同意。他还称，贝尔加尔可能仅在过去三年中进入美国，期间参与了“广泛的犯罪活动”。马姆达尼要求ICE公布事发时的执法记录仪视频。
The mayor said he spoke with President Trump and Mullin Thursday night in an attempt to get Begal released, but that he was unsuccessful. Mullin said President Trump agreed to release Belgal to New York Police Department(NYPD) custody if they were willing to pursue charges against him, but that Mamdani did not agree. He said Belgal may have only been in the U.S. for the past three years, during which he participated in “extensive criminal activity.”Mamdani called for ICE to release body-cam footage of the incident.
周五，纽约市警察局公布了其警员在枪击事件发生后不久的执法记录仪画面。穆林还批评市长称贝尔加尔是“纽约人”，并谴责马姆达尼“ICE已腐败到骨子里”的言论。马姆达尼此前曾呼吁废除ICE。穆林回应道：“真的吗？ICE的男女执法人员每天都在执行他拒绝执行的法律。”
NYPD released body-cam footage from their officers in the moments after the shooting Friday. Mullin went after the mayor for calling Belgal a New Yorker and criticized Mamdani’s statement that “ICE is rotten to the core.”Mamdani has called for the abolishment of ICE. “Really? The men and women of ICE each day are enforcing the laws that he refuses to enforce,” Mullin said.
“我们每周都会逮捕数千名罪犯，追捕那些罪大恶极的人，而他却对此视而不见。”穆林表示，美国移民和海关执法局（ICE）是在执行合法命令，并且贝尔加尔此前就曾一度逃脱过他们的追捕。他说，ICE在事发时并不知情车内有儿童，相关警员将在调查期间被停职。这位部长表示，贝尔加尔在将车加速至“高速行驶”时，确实知道车内有孩子，公众应该谴责他。
“We arrest thousands weekly that are criminals, going after the worst of the worst and he turns a blind eye to it.”Mullin said ICE was serving a lawful order and that Belgal had evaded them once before. He said ICE was not aware that the child was in the car during the encounter, and that the officers involved will be put on administrative leave while they investigate the situation. The secretary said Belgal did know the child was there when he accelerated his car to a “high speed,” and that the public should blame him.
“公众的愤怒也应该指向这名罪犯、这名暴徒、这名帮派分子、这名可能的杀人犯，”穆林说道。纽约市警察局局长杰西卡·蒂施表示，贝尔加尔已对重大盗窃罪认罪，目前正对涉及贝尔加尔的毒品犯罪销售行为展开调查，该调查已由联邦特工接手。
“The public outcry should be also toward this criminal, this thug, this gang-banger, this possible murderer,” Mullin said. NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Belgal pleaded guilty to grand larceny and that an investigation into the criminal sale of drugs involving Belgal is ongoing and had been taken over by federal agents.
