NYPD Detective Suspended After Multiple Arrests

In Staten Island, the NYPD arrested an individual connected to a series of citywide robberies, thanks to the efforts of Sergeant Gugliucci and Detective Hamdan. In separate incidents, NYPD Detective Douglas MacEwen, a 19-year veteran, was arrested twice for domestic-related charges, including attempted assault and theft, leading to his suspension without pay. MacEwen's arrests followed consecutive days of alleged misconduct on Staten Island's East Shore. Additionally, the NYPD is investigating a potential antisemitic hate crime in Willowbrook, where a man's religious cap was knocked off by a man and woman, and the case has been referred to the Hate Crime Task Force. These incidents highlight ongoing safety and accountability concerns within the NYPD and the community.
