A child's passport checked in a minivan, a bystander pepper-sprayed for filming: the surge New Yorkers were warned about has arrived.

Masked ICE agents fanned out across Bushwick, Inwood, East Elmhurst and College Point over two days, checking a child's passport at one stop and pepper-spraying a woman who filmed them at another, Brooklyn Paper reports [2]. NYC ICE Watch says it matches border czar Tom Homan's threatened buildup, and the New York Immigration Coalition warned the activity will likely continue [2]. The surge lands the same week Temporary Protected Status expired nationwide for Haitian immigrants, a separate crackdown reshaping the same neighborhoods.
“Thursday seemed to be the day that the ICE abductions really began to increase. So, yes, this is definitely an increase in ICE activity.”
“It is unacceptable to have the presence of ICE in our community without judicial warrants, simply walking near our parks, near our children, near our families in an immigrant community.”

A boy who weighed 59 pounds when he died was already known to the agency that's supposed to protect him.

Adonis Jarvis, 16, weighed 59 pounds and was covered in bed sores, feces and flies when he died in his family's Mott Haven apartment in March, prosecutors said; his autistic twin brother was found severely malnourished in the same room [25]. Their mother and grandmother face murder charges [30]. ACS had investigated the family and closed the case in 2024 [20]. Gov. Hochul is still sitting on a June bill that would force ACS to hand its records to city investigators after a string of child deaths under its watch [20].
“These two women failed in their duty and responsibility to care for these boys.”
“The sooner the governor looks at legislation to ensure the safety of New Yorkers the better.”


The city taxed the rich before it could say who actually owes the bill.

New York City's Department of Finance posted a database of more than 900,000 properties that "may" be subject to the new pied-à-terre tax but confirmed only a fraction of them actually owe it [57]. Mamdani and Finance Commissioner Richard Lee couldn't say how many of the notices went to owners who don't actually owe the tax [17]. Comptroller Mark Levine's office now projects the levy will bring in $1 billion a year, double Hochul's original estimate.
“I was surprised the city didn't make an effort to determine who owes the tax and who doesn't.”
“There's a lot of different reasons why we have these edge cases.”


A new documentary premiered this week at the exact spot in Central Park where Flaco taught himself to hunt after busting out of the Central Park Zoo in 2023, outwitting the hawks and crows that tried to run him off [146]. Hundreds of New Yorkers turned out under the same trees where the Eurasian eagle-owl became, in his director's words, "a symbol of resilience and hope," before he died after flying into an Upper West Side building with rat poison in his system [146]. It's the most New York kind of hero: an escaped zoo bird who made it on instinct alone for one wild year, in a city that never stopped watching him.
