<p>A well-known volunteer group known as the Guardian Angels has vowed to patrol the New York City subway system once again following horrific criminal incidents on the train, including an illegal immigrant fatally setting a woman on fire.</p>
<p>The group, currently composed of about 150 individuals, <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/12/29/us-news/guardian-angels-say-theyll-start-patrolling-nyc-subway-again-after-woman-burned-to-death-on-f-train/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> the New York Post that it wants to beef up its number of volunteers and act as another resource for residents.</p>
<p>“We’re covering the actual trains from front to back, walking through the trains and making sure that everything is okay,” founder Curtis Sliwa said on Sunday. “We’re doing this constantly now. Starting today. That’s going to be our complete focus because the subways are out of control.”</p>
<p>Sliwa said the red beret-wearing volunteers will hand out water and conduct wellness checks for those who are homeless or emotionally disturbed, and the group will also focus on reporting issues to the NYPD, the Post detailed.</p>
<p>“We’re going to have to increase our numbers, increase the training and increase our presence as we did back in 1979,” he said. “We’re going to step up. We’re going to make sure we have a visual presence just like we had in the ’70s, 80’s and ’90s.”</p>
<p>Sliwa said hundreds of citizens have requested that the volunteers head back to the subway in the wake of the recent crime. As highlighted by <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/illegal-indicted-after-allegedly-burning-woman-to-death-on-nyc-subway" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Wire</a>, a 33-year-old illegal named Sebastian Zapeta was charged this month with murder and arson after allegedly burning a woman to death on the subway.</p>
<p>The horrifying incident follows the high-profile case of Daniel Penny, a former U.S. Marine who stepped in to protect fellow passengers after a homeless man named Jordan Neely threatened straphangers. Penny was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-daniel-penny-found-not-guilty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">acquitted</a> in Neely&#8217;s death earlier this month.</p>
<p>New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Governor Kathy Hochul, both Democrats, have been under fire for the violent crime on the subway system. Notably, Hochul, in a particularly tone-deaf tweet, <a href="https://gazette.com/news/wex/hochul-touts-new-york-subway-safety-same-day-as-barbaric-crimes-occur/article_4ef823f3-a5f1-535a-8917-ba3934a70f67.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">celebrated</a> subway safety on the same day the still-unidentified woman was burned alive on the train and two others were stabbed.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">In March, I took action to make our subways safer for the millions of people who take the trains each day.</p>
