15-year-old Times Square shooting suspect charged as adult with attempted murder

A 15-year-old accused of shooting a bystander during a Times Square shoplifting incident has been charged as an adult with attempted murder, assault, and weapons charges. The suspect, who recently arrived from Venezuela, allegedly fired at a security guard and hit a tourist before fleeing the scene. Politicians and pundits have linked the shooting to the city's migrant influx, while the NYPD has raised concerns about "migrant crime." The suspect was arrested by U.S. Marshals in Yonkers after fleeing the scene and is being held without bail.
