NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said new restrictions on when officers can pursue vehicles that flee from police stops are already producing safer streets.

But in 2025, the mayor canceled his MLK appearances to attend the inauguration of President Trump, who’s dangled the possibility of a pardon if Adams is convicted on corruption charges.
