Last month, a 25-year-old man was stabbed in the shoulder at the Randall's Island migrant shelter. Police later arrested two suspects, identified as brothers Josue Deleon, 19, and Moises Deleon, 27. Both were charged with assault, police said at the time.
Recent violence near other city-run migrant shelters has enraged some city residents.
In Brooklyn, residents organized on Sunday to protest the skyrocketing violence, mounting trash and constant fights stemming from a massive complex that holds around 4,000 migrants.
Law enforcement is investigating whether the recent violence near the Brooklyn shelter is related to a violent Venezuelan street gang. On Sunday, two people were murdered, a third was critically injured near the mega shelter complex.
