Migrant Accused of Beating 2 NYPD Officers at a Manhattan Shelter Arrested AGAIN, Already Free Without Bail
Last May, Alexander Ayala, 24, was among several migrants chared for an attack on two NYPD officers after a fight between two groups of migrants at the Roosevelt Hotel.
The Roosevelt serves as the city’s main migrant intake center.
Ayala was charged with two counts of assault and one count of obstruction following the violent incident. Although prosecutors asked that he be held on $20,000 cash, $20,000 insurance bond, and $40,000 partially-secured surety bond, he and the other defendants were released on supervised release.
Now, Ayala has been arrested and charged again, this time for identity theft and possession of stolen property after an August 12 robbery, and a Manhattan criminal court judge has already released him on his own recognizance.
Authorities say Ayala grabbed the unidentified victim’s card and phone, then took off on a bike — then tried to use the woman’s Amazon credit card later that day at Gourmet 45, a deli on Third Avenue, and a T-Mobile store on Lexington Avenue, the complaint said.
Prosecutors hit him with two counts of third-degree identity theft and one count of criminal possession of stolen property for his alleged crimes.
But because the charges aren’t bail-eligible, the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office asked the court to let Ayala go on supervised release.
Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Simiyon Haniff let Ayala walk on his own recognizance.
New York’s soft-on-crime system continues to release repeat offenders onto the streets.
Last week, The Gateway Pundit reported on another serial criminal migrant, Yohenry Brito, 24, who was part of a violent altercation in January where two police officers attempting to disperse a mob of illegals were attacked.
Brito’s bail was paid by Good Shepherd Lutheran Church and, just a few months later while out on bail, Brito was arrested again, this time for serial theft.
New York is plagued by repeat offenders, in no small part due to its failed no-bail “Less is More” act, which was signed into law in 2021 by far-left New York Governor Kathy Hochul.
The Less is More Act gives more leniency to parolees and removes reasons to put parolees back behind bars.
The Less is More Act gives more leniency to parolees and removes reasons to put parolees back behind bars; according to The Post, “It removes technical parole violations like being late for an appointment, missing a curfew or finding alcohol or drugs in urine samples. And the act would speed up the timeframe to judicial review for any violations.”
