    ABC 7: Metal detectors, more NYPD presence expected at high-risk NYC schools

    by Jony October 25, 2021

    By Joe Torres

    CROTONA PARK, Bronx (WABC) — The use of metal detectors and other security measures are being boosted at NYC schools after a rash of guns being found in schools last week.

    On Monday, Mayor Bill de Blasio said unannounced scanning and additional officers will soon be implemented at some schools that are considered high-risk.

    Just last week, school safety officers recovered five guns at city schools, including at IS 98 where Hector Pagan’s son is a freshman.

    “The kids need to be safe, they come to school to learn and be safe and not worry about what is going on around them,” Pagan said.

    “Scanning at some of the sites throughout the city I think is going to help students traveling back and forth to school make that process a lot safer,” said NYPD Chief of Department Rodney Harrison.

    There are currently 3,200 safety agents working in public schools across the five boroughs, which is down from a high of roughly 5,000 agents.
