"Migrant Accused in Times Square Police Beatdown Arrested for Shoplifting and Robbery"

A Brooklyn church posted $15,000 bail to free Yohenry Brito, a Venezuelan migrant accused in the assault on two NYPD officers in Times Square. The church's pastor cited the politically charged context surrounding the case and the presumption of innocence. Meanwhile, another suspect in the attack, Yarwuin Madris, was also charged and jailed, while two others were found in the custody of federal immigration authorities. The Manhattan DA's Office is still reviewing footage of the beating to determine each suspect's level of involvement.
