Need for Collective Action to Combat Gun Violence

The Bronx community speaks out on their concerns regarding the recent increase in violence in their neighborhood, following the stabbing of two men inside the laundromat, one of whom did not survive. The neighborhood, particularly the area around East 170th Street and College Avenue, has been experiencing ongoing violence, including shootings and stabbings. The report mentions that 11 people have been killed in the 44th precinct this year, making it the second highest in the Bronx. Community leader David Caba from Bronx Rises Against Gun Violence emphasizes the need for collective action to address the issue, stating that even one murder or shooting is too many.
