“It was a snowball fight that got out of hand”. What started as an innocent snowball fight during the New York City blizzard had, in fact, snowballed, landing Mayor Zohran Mamdani and the city’s police leadership in a row. Video taken on Monday afternoon in Washington Square Park shows a snowball fight following an epic snowstorm devolving into some parkgoers apparently targeting police with snowballs. The New York City Police Department (NYPD) has arrested one of four suspects they say assaulted officers with snowballs, injuring them. Mamdani then reiterated on Wednesday that what he saw “was a snowball fight”, acknowledging that it “got out of hand, but that’s what it was”.
