Speaking to a sea of police officers mourning slain NYPD detective Wilbert Mora, Mayor Eric Adams vowed Wednesday to give them resources to fight the "senseless violence" linked to guns.
"New Yorkers understand the risk and sacrifice you make every day, and we applaud you for that," he said to those attending the funeral of the young officer at St. Patrick's Cathedral. "Those of us who have put on the uniform know: What happened to Officer Mora could happen to us any day."
