Midday News: Teen in Critical Condition After Pride Shooting, MetroCard to Be Phased Out by Year’s End, and Rent Guidelines Board to Vote on Increases Amid Citywide Political Shifts

Police say a 16-year-old girl is in critical condition after being shot in the head near the Stonewall Inn as Pride celebrations wrapped up Sunday night. A 17-year-old was also shot and is in stable condition. Meanwhile, the MTA will stop selling MetroCards by the end of the year as it completes its shift to the OMNY tap-to-pay system. A planned four percent fare hike could also raise the cost of a single ride to $3. Plus, the city’s Rent Guidelines Board is set to vote Monday night on potential increases for rent-stabilized apartments. WNYC’s David Brand joins us to explain what’s at stake.
