Eric Adams: “The last quarter that we just experienced was the lowest…”

“4.6 million out of those. 4.6 million. We have five felonies a day. Out of 4.6 million police officers are working hard. Took 21,500 illegal guns off our street. The last quarter that we just experienced was the lowest number of shootings in recorded history in the city. Second lowest number of homicides. We took off 80,000 illegal vehicles off the street. You know those little mopeds that's all over the place? We took them off, took off ghost cars off our streets.” (03:35–03:44)
