NEW YORK — NYPD officers were reportedly barred from entering a migrant hotel near Times Square after responding to a 911 call, due to an apparent policy that prohibits entry without a migrant program supervisor present. A video posted by @ViralNewsNYC shows officers standing outside the hotel while being denied access.
The incident has sparked questions regarding protocols for law enforcement responding to emergencies at migrant shelters and hotels. According to reports, the officers were told they could not enter the facility without an authorized supervisor from the migrant program on-site.
It remains unclear whether the policy was established by city officials or the organization managing the facility. The nature of the 911 call and whether the situation was resolved internally has not been confirmed.
City officials have not yet commented on the incident or the policy in question. The NYPD has also not issued a statement regarding the reported restrictions on officer entry.
