According to an exclusive report by The New York Post, ten unruly migrants were busted early Sunday near a Manhattan hotel-turned-lodging for asylum-seekers, as the Big Apple grapples with its overwhelming immigration influx.
The arrested migrants, who are currently or were previously sheltered at the Stewart Hotel, were rounded up on assault and disorderly-conduct charges around 4:30 a.m. near West 31st Street and Seventh Avenue after two separate drunken scuffles, law-enforcement sources said.
At shelter sights all over the city, cops are busy dealing with ruckus these unhoused individuals cause. The violence comes after a Jan. 22 migrant melee at the hotel that had two sheltered asylum-seekers hurling bottles at another man, who allegedly then stabbed the pair, police said.
Four of the migrants arrested on Sunday were charged with assault, while the other six were hit with disorderly-conduct raps, after getting into fights and filing complaints against each other, the sources said. All of the migrants refused medical aid at the scene.
Sunday’s melee comes as New York City continues to scramble to find shelter for thousands of migrants being bused to the Big Apple — with more expected to arrive after the expiration of the Title 42 emergency order last week, NY Post reported.
The illegals have also been reported as per TJV News sources to have robbed and attacked Broadway Theater employees in Times Square. The ROW NYC Hotel, in the heart of Times Square is housing hundreds of migrants, and right near the Broadway theater district. In several instances, theater workers, who often leave work, long after the shows end have been assaulted and robbed by the loving migrants.

On Saturday, Mayor Eric Adams announced that the historic 1,000-room Roosevelt Hotel in Midtown, which has been closed for three years, would become the city’s main “asylum seeker arrival shelter.”
Adams also has been getting pushback from upstate communities in Westchester, Rockland and Orange Counties, where the city has bused or plans to bus immigrants who are flooding the five boroughs.
A former public school on Staten Island on Saturday also began taking in the first of 300 migrants scheduled to be housed there. Neighbors of the former Richard H. Hungerford School on Tompkins Avenue complained that they were given no advance notice of the move.
Meanwhile in Brooklyn. Parents of school children, as the New York Daily News reports, are outraged over the plan and noted that their kids have had recess cut while migrants living in the school gyms are being given free housing and food — paid for by New Yorkers.
“How would you feel if you were living here and you got these random people moving into a school that’s active that your grandkids go to?” resident Danielle Rogers told the Daily News. She lives across the street from PS 188 in Coney Island where nearly 100 adult migrants have already started living.
Another recent controversy involved the eviction of many veterans from upstate hotels so that migrants could be housed.
