At least 41 people have been arrested at the Roosevelt Hotel since the
city turned the former swanky Prohibition-era hotel into a migrant shelter
in May, The Post has learned.
Most of the alleged crimes stemmed from domestic-violence incidents, law- enforcement sources said Sunday.
The troubling figure surfaced a day after a 30-year-old migrant at the Manhattan hotel-turned-shelter was arrested for alleged child
endangerment.
He was taken into custody just before 9 p.m. Saturday at the hotel at 45
E. 45th St.
His alleged victim was his 11-year-old daughter, according to police
sources.
Sources said the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office later declined to prosecute.
“After thorough investigation and review of the facts, the People declined
to prosecute this matter,” a spokesperson for the Manhattan DA’s office
said in a statement. “If a crime cannot be proven beyond a reasonable
doubt, it is our ethical duty not to charge it.”
Other arrests at the site have included an asylum seeker accused of
bashing an employee in the head with a “No Parking” sign in June after the worker chucked him from the building for being unruly.
The worker ended up with a 6-inch gash on his head — and Mayor Eric Adams
made an unannounced visit to the hotel within days to survey the situation himself.
Some other migrant shelters have had issues, too.
A 20-year-old migrant woman was arrested Thursday for allegedly slapping
an NYPD officer who was attempting to confiscate her unregistered
motorbike in front of the Stratford Arms Hotel on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
The woman — who also had been arrested in July for allegedly attacking her boyfriend — was freed without bail the next day, as per state law.
The Roosevelt had come under scrutiny over the summer when sobering video surfaced showing dozens of migrants sleeping on cardboard on the sidewalk outside because of the overwhelming number of asylum seekers flooding the
city.
Some local businesses have bemoaned the situation.
“These migrants here, they are disturbing us a lot,’’ said George Boahene,
a store manager at the men’s suit store Sayki down the block, to The Post
on Sunday.
“They are always hanging around scratching the windows and making the
windows dirty. … It’s not good for the business.’’
But he said he was unaware of the crimes being allegedly committed at the hotel.
A security guard at the hotel said, “A lot of these people are immigrants
and they work for Uber Eats.
“They pretty much just stay here and take care of their kids.
“The only thing that’s really bad around here is parking,’’ the worker
said. “You know, a lot of tickets.”
