       Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul responded to the Tuesday mass shooting in Brooklyn, saying "We are sick and tired of reading headlines about crime."

       Hochul made the statement during a press briefing alongside law enforcement officers, hours after a lone gunman injured at least 16 people with gunfire and explosives at a Brooklyn subway station. Hochul took the opportunity to address not just the shooting, but the spike in crime generally across her state.

       "The people of the entire state of New York stand with the people of this city and this community, and we say ‘No more,'" Hochul said. "No more mass shootings; no more disrupting lives; no more creating heartbreak for people just trying to live their lives as normal New Yorkers."

       Hochul went on to say that she is devoting "the entire resources in our state" to fight the ongoing crime surge.

        

       "It has to end and it ends now. We are sick nd tired of reading headlines about crime, whether they're mass shootings, or the loss of a teenage girl, or a 13-year-old. It has to stop," Hochul continued.
