“Biden’s New York City trip falls just one day after the city paid its final respects to fallen NYPD Detective Wilbert Mora, who was laid to rest Wednesday following a funeral service at St. Patrick’s Cathedral. Mora and his partner, Detective Jason Rivera, died after they were shot by a domestic violence suspect while responding to a police call in Harlem on Jan. 21. The suspect also died,” reports Fox News.
