Increase in NYPD officers injured by suspects in New York City
The number of New York City police officers injured by suspects has been increasing, with 5,363 officers hurt in 2023. The most dangerous precincts were identified, and experts attribute the rise in attacks to protests, illegal migrants, anti-cop rhetoric, and soft-on-crime policies. Curfews have been imposed to address migrant violence, and some officers have left the NYPD due to concerns about safety and changing laws.
