He’s not a bad kid.”New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said "all our hearts are heavy right now" during an appearance at the precinct. De Blasio said the city would double down on efforts to keep kids safe in school. Urban Assembly School for Wildlife Conservation serves grades 6-12, and is co-located with elementary school PS 67. The school -- which doesn't have metal detectors -- performs below average in state exams, according to the New York Post.
