NEW YORK CITY (PIX11) – A day after a federal immigration officer fatally shot a woman in Minneapolis, New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams issued a warning to New Yorkers: “They are coming to our city.”

But she promised to use “every single tool” at the government’s disposal to enforce U.S. immigration laws.
