Shootings are surging this week in New York City, with 28 incidents and 38 victims reported since Monday — the day the NYPD disbanded its plainclothes anti-crime unit, The Post learned on Friday.
By comparison, the same week last year there were only 12 shootings for the entire week.
In the most recent reported shooting, at 4 p.m. Friday in East New York, Brooklyn, a 27-year-old man died of multiple gunshot wounds to his torso, face and leg in front of 640 Stanley Avenue.
A 17-year-old boy who was also shot there was in stable condition, police said.
“This is what the politicians wanted — no bail, nobody in Rikers, cops not arresting anyone,” one angry law enforcement source said Friday.
“All those things equal people walking around on the street with guns, shooting each other.”
The shooting spree includes at least five murders, sources told The Post.
One murder happened Monday at 10 p.m. on Franklin Avenue in The Bronx, where a 34-year-old man was fatally shot in the back and hip; a second shooting victim at that scene was hospitalized.
There was another slaying early Wednesday outside a Brooklyn party, where a well-liked Queens-based DJ, Jomo Glasgow, 35, was fatally shot in the torso in front of a house party on East 49th Street near Snyder Avenue.
The dying victim had managed to drag himself around the block before collapsing, police said. A second victim, a man in his 30s, was shot in the buttocks outside the same party.
Members of the NYPD’s anti-crime unit were reassigned to uniformed patrol duties on Monday — part of what Police Commissioner Dermot Shea called a “seismic” shift affecting some 600 cops.

Gee....who didn’t see THIS coming? (DeBlob and CommieCuomo)
They knew..They just don’t care..They have security and the thugs never venture into their homes or kids schools....
I don’t know how this all is going to get pinned on Orange Man Bad, but I’m sure the MSM has a panel of experts brainstorming it as we speak.
DeBlasio will make a Chicago on the Eastern seaboard.
Elections have consequences. Time for New Yorkers to experience the results of the policies the leaders they elected put in place.
But were they wearing masks, and social distancing?
$hitcago on the Hudson.
What will they yell when the Social Workers show up?
“Time for New Yorkers to experience the results of the policies the leaders they elected put in place.”
Definitely. Not sure they will know the difference. Certainly the MSM won’t tell them what is going on.
Word got around quick...cops are in uniform. Nobody else is a cop.
As many have said, “Liberalism is a mental disorder.” Cuomo. Inslee. Newsom. DeBlasio. Durkan.
They are all bona fide nutcases.
What a remarkable and completely unexpected coincidence.
Expect cleared homicides to drop to zero.
Of course, there’s a bright side to that...
Absolutely predictable consequences of a LIEberal dumbass move!
No surprise at all!
Chicago is what you get. The same sort of thing happens here, where our police have been grasped by the short and curlies for too long.
Yep, but that won’t happen until some high profile white cuck leftard gets shived.
Here in Minneapolis, there has been about 60 people shot since June 1st. Since the news coverage is sketchy at best, we don’t really know how many of these resulted in deaths. The media are deliberately not reporting most of these. Only when there is mass shootings such as the one of 6 people shot on Sunday and 8 shot on Thursday did they report them. Today a man was found shot dead in the Powder Horn Park neighborhood. It should be noted that the Park Board has opened all 180 city parks to the “homeless”, Powder Horn Park already has over 100 emcamped there.
They're not. The Giuliani era is ancient history now. The majority of the criminals are young people who were born after 9/11, and even those born in the 90s were just kids when 9/11 happened and really didn't understand what was going on.
NYC is simply returning to the bad old days of the 1970s and early 90s under Dinkins. Real estate prices & tourism is going to drop like a rock and NYC will become a hollowed-out version of Detroit.
Going forward, we should refer to New York homicides as “Blasio’s”, the “blasio effect”, or “Marx effect”, or s ok something accurate like these...
