Plus, WNYC’s Liam Quigley reports a vacant lot in the Bronx that was supposed to become home to a new charter school is now a hotspot for illegal dumping. And finally, WNYC’s Michael Hill and Samantha Max discuss a New York City law meant to keep guns away from dangerous people. However, gun experts say city officials rarely use the law.
