At least 28 people were shot over the past three days in New York City — including a 6-year-old boy who had his femur shattered — and that’s what Mayor Bill de Blasio calls a “peaceful weekend.”
Hizzoner boasted during his daily briefing to reporters about Labor Day weekend despite the bloodbath — 22 shooting incidents involving 28 people from Friday through Monday, according to NYPD statistics.
Among the victims were the boy and his mother, who were struck by bullets with three others during J’Ouvert celebrations early Monday in Crown Heights, Brooklyn.
“Thank God none have life-threatening injuries,” de Blasio said. “Except for that incident, overwhelmingly we had a peaceful weekend in central Brooklyn and it really is because of the hard work of everyone.”
