Nick Reisman reports at New York State of Politics that after a weekend when police thwarted an attack on New York City Jewish communities and five people were shot and killed at an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado, New York State Police are expanding surveillance and protection for at-risk communities, Gov. Kathy Hochul's office said. "I have directed the New York State Police to ramp up monitoring and increase support for communities that are potential targets of hate crimes," Hochul said. "Here in New York, we will not tolerate violence or bigotry toward any community. We stand united against hate — today and every day." Two men were arrested in New York City this weekend after making threats toward the New York Jewish community and a house of worship, and a Colorado man was taken into custody after killing five. State police officials said they wanted to stop the next hate crime before it happens. "The State Police will work in close coordination with our state, local and federal partners to keep all our communities safe from violence," Acting Superintendent Steven Nigrelli said. "We appreciate the resources and support from Governor Hochul to help us accomplish this mission." Read the full story at New York State of Politics.
