Hochul warns New Yorkers to remain vigilant during ongoing 'active shooter situation'

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) said on Tuesday that the epidemic of mass shootings "has to end and it ends now" during a press conference called after 10 people were shot at a New York City subway station in what Hochul described as an ongoing "active shooter situation," CBS News reports.

"We say no more. No more mass shootings. No more disrupting lives. No more creating heartbreak for people," Hochul said. "And we are sick and tired of reading headlines about crime," she added, pledging the "full resources of our state to fight this surge of crime."
