However, it’s suspected that four of them might have fled, possibly heading for California by bus after giving fake names to a nonprofit aiding migrants. One of them was put on supervised release due to prior arrests but fleeing would likely violate his release terms. Another suspect was also released without bail. A third was arrested but not charged pending further investigation. One suspect was held on bail after being positively identified in the video footage of the attack. The decision to release the suspects without bail has sparked criticism from NYPD officials and calls for deportation from Governor Kathy Hochul.

 Mourners leaving a memorial service for Henry Kissinger on the Upper East Side were harassed by a group of radicals, as shown in video footage. Six individuals trailed a couple who had paid their respects at Temple Emanu-El, waving signs and verbally abusing them. The protesters, including pro-Palestine demonstrators, disrupted attendees, shouted insults, and threw water at them. Far-left protesters gathered across the street, cheering Kissinger’s death and engaging in violent confrontations, including one involving an individual with an Israeli flag pin. The incidents prompted criticism, with one observer calling the actions “cowardice” and a “new low.” Henry Kissinger, a significant figure in US foreign policy, passed away at the age of 100 on November 29, 2023.
