Fox News joined the NYPD on a ride-along in Queens, New York, to get to the heart of the surge in crime committed by illegal migrants in an area officers call a "hot spot."
"It’s going to be one of those nights," says NYPD Assistant Commissioner Kaz Daughtry.
Fox News cameras were rolling as we saw what the department's Community Response Team deals with on a nightly basis. The CRT team hit the Queens area, patrolling the neighborhood officers call a hot spot.
"So, we have only been out for 10 minutes, and we already have a guy driving a stolen moped. That is how it starts. Then, he could commit a crime using that stolen moped," says Chief of Patrol John Chell.
