A group of homeless men who were captured in a viral video attacking a New York City police officer inside a subway station won’t face charges for the incident ... "When people are arrested for attacking officers, we prosecute them. These men were not arrested for attacking an officer – they were arrested for sleeping on the floor of a subway station – a rules violation, not a crime,” Manhattan DA’s spokesman Danny Frost said in a statement (совсем другое дело).

Former NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton also tweeted, “Kudos to this NY cop on his performance. His situation is a reminder to New Yorkers & their political leaders that NYC’s decline in the 70s & 80s began in the subways. The quality-of-life declines & warning signs are all there for it to happen once again.”
