the New York Police Department said multiple uniformed officers were struck in the face with snowballs and w ere “removed by EMS in stable condition” to a nearby hospital

What a bunch of fucking babies. Unless someone was throwing actual rocks instead of snowballs there is no way they were hurt bad enough to justify going to the hospital. They probably just wanted to claim workers comp or fuck over the snowballers.
