TL;DR Summary

New York City is expanding a curfew to 20 migrant shelters after a series of violent incidents involving shelter residents. The curfew, from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., will affect about 3,600 migrants. This decision comes after a 15-year-old from Venezuela opened fire in Times Square and a video of migrants brawling with police went viral. The city operates over 200 such facilities to house some 66,000 newly arrived asylum seekers.
