New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani was met with jeers and profanity when he took the stage at a pro-police celebration in Staten Island before a protester suffered cardiac arrest after attempting to question him. It’s amazing to be here for the Staten Island community!' During the event shortly before 7pm, LoBaido suffered a cardiac arrest, an FDNY spokesperson confirmed to SI Live. The Staten Island location Mamdani attended also included performances by local dance groups, a puppet show and arts and crafts stations for children. Mamdani's icy reception in Staten Island is explained by the borough's status as a Republican enclave in otherwise overwhelmingly blue New York City.
