Chicago alderman sounds alarm on migrant surge ahead of DNC: 'We can't handle any more'
Chicago alderman Anthony Napolitano joined 'Fox & Friends First' to discuss why he believes the Windy City has 'tapped out' of the migrant crisis as it braces for 25,000 more before the Democratic National Convention.
A shooting erupted near a New York City shelter for migrants on Randall’s Island early Monday, killing one person and wounding two others, according to authorities.
Police responded to a call around 3:30 a.m. to Wards Meadow Loop Field 71 and found three gunshot victims, the New York Police Department said.
A 44-year-old woman had gunshot wounds to her face and back, a 32-year-old suffered a gunshot wound to his throat, and a 31-year-old female was shot in the back, police said.
All three victims were rushed to Harlem Hospital, where the 44-year-old woman was pronounced dead. The other two victims were in stable condition as of Monday morning.

'EXTREME AGENDA': HARRIS’ PAST RECORD ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION RESURFACES AFTER BIDEN DROPS OUT
Last month, a 25-year-old man was stabbed in the shoulder at the Randall's Island migrant shelter. Police later arrested two suspects, identified as brothers Josue Deleon, 19, and Moises Deleon, 27. Both were charged with assault, police said at the time.
Recent violence near other city-run migrant shelters has enraged some city residents.
In Brooklyn, residents organized on Sunday to protest the skyrocketing violence, mounting trash and constant fights stemming from a massive complex that holds around 4,000 migrants.
Law enforcement is investigating whether the recent violence near the Brooklyn shelter is related to a violent Venezuelan street gang. On Sunday, two people were murdered, a third was critically injured near the mega shelter complex.
