Eventually, four of the illegal immigrants were apprehended and identified as Darwin Andres Gomez Izquiel, 19, Kelvin Servat Arocha, 19, Juarez Wilson, 21, and Yorman Reveron, 24, according to the Post. Shockingly, all four were released without bail after being charged with assault. However, a fifth suspect was arrested on Monday night and charged with attempted assault of a police officer.
The two officers sustained minor injuries, including cuts to the face and bruised bodies, and received treatment at the scene. The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office is currently reviewing the footage and investigating the incident.
Of particular concern is Reveron, one of the released illegal immigrants, who already has two open cases for assault and robbery. He allegedly assaulted an employee at Nordstrom Rack after being caught attempting to steal a $130 item. Additionally, Reveron is accused of punching a loss prevention officer during another robbery attempt at Macy’s last month.
This incident highlights the ongoing struggle faced by New York City in dealing with the influx of tens of thousands of illegal immigrants who have taken advantage of President Joe Biden’s lenient border policies. Mayor Eric Adams recently acknowledged that some of these illegal immigrants have been involved in a robbery pattern.
When questioned about his claim, Adams responded, “There are people who are committing crimes in all walks of life. It’s not just migrants and asylum seekers. I think that we have a number of migrants who have committed crimes. We have a number of non-migrants who are committing crimes.”
