Seven people have been indicted in connection to the Times Square brawl between migrants and NYPD officers, with charges including assault and obstructing governmental administration. Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg denied reports of out-of-state arrests in the case, stating that the indictments came after a joint investigation with the NYPD. The incident occurred when officers told the group to move away from a shelter, leading to a confrontation. Some suspects changed clothes after the altercation, making them harder to track down. Mayor Adams praised the handling of the case and emphasized the pursuit of anyone committing a crime, regardless of their background.
