YONKERS: Community Activist Freddy Vazquez Released The Following Statement:

“The officers I have spoken with want to see change as well and acknowledge that more can be done.

I will be looking to work with these officers particularly from Community Affairs Division to assure that there is follow through and that the promises made are kept.

These promises are beneficial NOT just for the People but for the Officers as well Policing our community.
It starts with knowing the people you serve.

All it’s takes is 5 minutes to get out of your vehicles and introduce yourselves to the community.

Getting to know each other and working together is how we make the necessary changes to assure we don’t have another innocent Black man and Human Being murdered at the hands of Racist and many times overzealous cops.

We all have work to do.

We can not expect change to happen without putting in the work required.

That means being consistent in our demands and holding those tasked with creating a better community for all accountable.”
