On April 1, 2023, gang members of 800 YGz allegedly fired shots in a courtyard next to a middle school, endangering children's lives. Law enforcement recently tackled the gang, charging 20 members, many of whom were minors at the time of various shootings. Despite evidence of the gang's violent activities, questions arose regarding the delay in actions taken by Bronx DA Darcel Clark. Meanwhile, proposals to shut down the NYPD gang database due to accusations of racial profiling are contested, given the clear danger posed to the community by these gangs.
The Bronx DA's crackdown on the 800 YGz gang highlights serious public safety concerns, as gang members allegedly fired weapons near children in a playground.
Despite years of gang activity, charges against 20 members of 800 YGz were only recently announced, raising questions about the timing of law enforcement actions.
