Bronx fire donations delayed? Bronx borough president shares updates
THE BRONX — Its been two weeks since the devastating high-rise fire in the Bronx that claimed the lives of 17 people. Despite all the money raised by the public and local businesses to help, survivors said over the weekend that none of the money had made it to them yet.
Many residents of the Twin Parks Towers are also still living in area hotels and are frustrated about how long it's taking for housing and financial assistance to come.
Bronx Borough President Vanessa Gibson spoke with the PIX11 Morning news on Monday to share the latest on these issues and provide some answers and clarity.
Gibson also spoke on the spate of shootings across the city in just the few weeks since the start of the year.
