A tragic shooting incident occurred near the Stonewall Inn in NYC during the conclusion of Pride celebrations, resulting in severe injuries to two teenage girls. A 16-year-old girl is currently in critical condition, while a 17-year-old is stable. The police are investigating the case, and it's unclear if this was a hate crime. Mayor Eric Adams expressed his sadness regarding the violence, emphasizing the need for celebration rather than mourning during Pride festivities. Organizations like the Christopher Street Project shared their condolences and solidarity with the victims and their families.
During a time when our city should be rejoicing and celebrating members of our diverse LGBTQ+ community, incidents like this are devastating.
Tonight, we are holding the victims of the shooting outside the Stonewall Inn and their families in our hearts.
