Mamdani has a history of criticizing the NYPD, but said on Wednesday that he doesn't plan to defund the department

Zohran Mamdani spent the last hours of his wedding celebration in Uganda huddled remotely with his team after learning of New York’s deadliest mass shooting of the last 25 years.

The killing of four people including a police officer in a Midtown Manhattan office building rattled a city where mass attacks are rare and violent crime has declined.

Family, friends, and colleagues of slain NYPD officer Didarul Islam gathered at Parkchester Jame Masjid Mosque in the Bronx for his funeral.

A New York City police officer who was among the four people shot and killed by a gunman during a rampage at a Manhattan office tower will be laid to rest Thursday. Officer Didarul Islam, 36, was fatally shot Monday in a midtown building housing the National Football League’s headquarters.
