About this episode
Police say they’re looking for a man who poses as an Amazon worker and has stolen more than $10,000 in jewelry and other valuables in a string of burglaries in Queens over the last year. Meanwhile, New York City officials are launching a safety campaign to warn e-bike riders of the dangers of flouting traffic laws. Also, thousands of patients insured by Aetna will keep their coverage for doctors in the New York-Presbyterian health system after striking a deal with the health insurance provider. Finally, the state of emergency in Haiti has been escalating, with gang violence wreaking havoc on Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince. With over 150,000 Haitians in New York City, many residents are paying attention to the news. WNYC’s Sean Carlson speaks with Jocelyn McCalla, a senior policy advisor for Haitian Americans for Democracy, to learn more about how the Haitian community in New York City is doing.
