“People are smoking crack for breakfast in Times Square,” the longtime Manhattan resident said in a video posted on her Instagram Story. “Public service announcement.”

Leah McSweeney, who filmed the selfie video while walking on NYC streets, went on to share that her 16-year-old daughter, Kier, had been recently threatened on the subway.

The 41-year-old claimed that an unidentified male told her daughter that they planned to “turn her into a pile of meat on the floor.”

“And I’ll be leaving New York as soon as possible,” Leah proclaimed.

The former reality star elaborated on the subject during an appearance on “Fox and Friends.”

“This breaks my heart because New York City is the best city in the world, but it is not safe right now and it is especially not safe for women,” Leah said.

Leah revealed that a man allegedly told her teenage daughter — “Shut the blank up or I am going to kill you.”

The Married to the Mob founder shared her belief that the public had been  “gaslit” by politicians repeatedly claiming that the city is “safer than ever.”

On Wednesday, a New York Post report cited internal NYPD data that pointed to a significant spike in serious crime in NYC last year. Meanwhile, Mayor Eric Adams has repeatedly labeled the city’s ongoing crime wave a “perception problem.”

“It’s not, I’m sorry, there’s no way,” the fashion designer said. “I’m out there on the train, I’m walking around. It’s not safe.”

Leah’s story comes after fellow RHONY alum, Bethenny Frankel, 53, revealed that she had walked back a plan to move back to Manhattan, after being punched in the face by a homeless man. 

“At that point, I texted the broker and said, ‘I don’t want to see apartments anymore. This city is insane,’” the Skinnygirl mogul said in a TikTok update, last week.

“This is insane bc this happened to me a few months ago but I was embarrassed to say,” Bethenny previously wrote under a TikTok user’s video describing a similar experience. “I was on the UWS [Upper West Side]. Insane. I was taking video of a bakery.”

She later denied deleting the comment as reported by multiple outlets, adding—“It’s a crazy crime spree and I don’t understand it. And I’m sorry for all the other women that it’s happening to.”
