TL;DR Summary

Three migrants from Venezuela were arrested by the NYPD for allegedly stealing wallets and cellphones from at least 62 women across New York City. They were caught after a video showed one of them dragging a woman along a street to steal her phone. The suspects were reportedly stealing iPhones to use the Apple Pay feature and the owners' credit cards to buy items. Mayor Eric Adams, who initially welcomed migrants, has since warned that the influx of asylum seekers will "destroy" the city. The city announced a $53 million program to give pre-paid credit cards to migrant families with children, drawing outrage from many, including native New Yorkers like rapper 50 Cent.
