A second migrant has died by suicide in New York City's shelter system, law enforcement sources and sources in the city's aid community said Monday.
The 26-year-old man died in a Queens shelter Wednesday of last week, the sources said. Aid sources familiar with the family's situation indicated the young man was here with a child and the child's mother. Police records indicate the man was found by in the bathroom by his partner; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead there. He was believed by others in the shelter to be from Venezuela, though his full personal circumstances were not immediately clear., a young woman with two children who took her own life at another Queens shelter.The latest death comes amid the city's ongoing shelter crisis.
The city attributes the increase to an influx of migrants from border states sent here by those states' governors; homeless advocates say the situation is more complex and includes the impact of rising evictions and strained social services., as an expiring federal policy means substantially more migrants may end up crossing the border - and ultimately getting bussed here.
