It is one of the biggest problems in New York City - the rising rate of crime.
Overall, crime in the city is up 30 percent last month, compared to a year ago. Mayor Adams is calling on top NYPD officials to meet Saturday to put a summer plan in place to combat crime.
Gun violence is set to be the hot topic. This year, several shootings have injured children, including an 11-month-old shot in the face in the Bronx and a three-year-old hit in the shoulder in Brooklyn walking out of a daycare. On Friday at Francis Lewis High School in Queens, students went through metal detectors after a shooting spree next to the school on Wednesday, injuring three teens.
