Four new Police Academy classes will hit the streets this year in the wake of the fatal shooting of NYPD officer Jonathan Diller. 

“The mayor has been very clear that public safety is the prerequisite to prosperity, and that’s why we have plans to continue adding thousands of additional cops to New York City streets through November,”  a spokesman for the Mayor’s Office said.

City Hall “will continue to evaluate between now and the executive budget to determine if there are any other areas where we can restore more funding,” he added. 

The move to add new recruits to the force comes as lawmakers raised concerns about four Police Academy classes planned for 2025, but which were gutted earlier this year amid budget belt tightening due to the swelling migrant crisis.

What to know about the fatal shooting of NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller:

• Diller, 31, was shot and killed during a routine traffic stop in Far Rockaway, Queens, on March 25, 2024.
• Suspect Guy Rivera allegedly opened fire on Diller on Monday evening after the cop approached the vehicle Rivera was in for parking in front of a bus stop.
• Diller was shot once in the stomach below his bulletproof vest. The married father of a 1-year-old boy was rushed to Jamaica Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
• Rivera was wounded when Diller’s partner returned fire. The suspect has 21 prior arrests and was found to have a shiv stored in his rectum during the shooting — in apparent anticipation of being sent to jail again.
• Lindy Jones, the ex-con behind the wheel of the car during the shooting, was also arrested after a second gun was found in his car.
• Mayor Eric Adams has renewed his calls for Albany to address criminal recidivism following the shooting involving two suspects with lengthy criminal records.

The Adams administration last month, however, pointed to “better-than-expected” revenue and canceled a number of planned cutbacks. 

In the wake of Diller’s fatal shooting after approaching an illegally parked car in Queens Monday, pols pressed the Adams administration for updates about when they could expect more cops would be on the beat to combat violent crime in the city.
