The NYPD charged a Florida teen with criminal mischief, but the real story’s about the human cost: Bitat’s getting emotional and financial support from French Montana, TikTok stars, and the Taxi Workers Alliance, with a GoFundMe nearing $75K to give him options beyond driving. As the city gears up for a championship parade, advocates are urging fans to celebrate safely—because these drivers keep New York moving, and they deserve peace, not pain.
