Evening Roundup: NYPD Gang Tracker Under Scrutiny, High-Tech Flood Barriers to Protect Manhattan, Youth Vaping Lawsuit and a Community Champion

NYC NOW

About this episode

The NYPD and members of the City Council are sparring over a bill that would ban police from using a tracker to monitor gang members. Plus, city leaders demonstrate new technology that will help defend Manhattan’s Two Bridges neighborhood against rising sea levels. Also, Attorney General Letitia James goes after e-cigarette companies for violating New York’s ban on flavored vapes and contributing to a youth vaping “public health crisis.” And finally, a church volunteer oversees a food pantry that has become an important community resource. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
