New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani orders NYPD use-of-force review amid progressive pressure following ICE shooting
Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced a comprehensive review of NYPD use-of-force policies on October 13, 2026, the first such review in approximately a decade. The announcement included a package of reforms addressing officer accountability, including measures to prevent officers from retiring before disciplinary proceedings conclude, prompted in part by the case of officer Salvatore Alongi who retired before facing a disciplinary trial for the 2024 fatal shooting of Win Rozario. The review came amid pressure from progressive groups, including the NYC chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America, who called for Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch's firing following an ICE shooting of Oscar Belgal in the Marble Hill neighborhood.
