New York City Mayor Eric Adams is calling on the federal government to step in and help block the “constant flow” of guns into his city after two NYPD officers were shot, one fatally.

During an appearance on ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Jan. 23, Adams said the coordination with the federal government would be part of his soon-to-be-unveiled plan to deal with “underlying reasons” for New York City to experience such a surge in violence.
