NYC Mayor, Waging an Anti-Rat Campaign, Fights a Rodent Infestation Ticket

New York Mayor Eric Adams said he was just taking advantage of a process every New Yorker is entitled to when he appealed a minimum $300 citation for a rat infestation at a property he owns in Brooklyn.

“As every New Yorker knows by now, I hate rats,” Adams told 1010 WINS radio Wednesday, burnishing his anti-rodent credentials that include recent initiatives to change trash collection schedules and hire a city “rat czar.”
