New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is urging citizens to tattle on anyone who might be violating social distancing rules and regulations.
The mayor posted a video on Twitter calling on snitches to snap photos and text the images to the authorities.
“Now it is easier than ever,” he said in the video posted below. “When you see a crowd, when you see a line that’s not distanced, when you see a supermarket that’s too crowded — anything — you can report it right away so we can get help there to fix the problem.”
How do you report places that aren’t enforcing social distancing? It’s simple: just snap a photo and text it to 311-692. #AskMyMayor pic.twitter.com/WQdCcVf1Rl
