The news comes amid a nationwide surge in COVID-19 cases, with the U.S. passing four million cases in November alone, according to New York Times coronavirus data.

Democratic New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted Sunday that the city recorded 1,636 new COVID-19 cases, adding the city’s seven-day positivity rate is 3.9%. Both numbers are up from what the mayor announced Saturday.

Authorities broke up another party Nov. 26, where 76 people were found gathering illegally. The Sheriff’s Office tweeted that five people were arrested. On Nov 16, authorities busted a 200-person gathering at an unlicensed NYC fight club. The club’s CEO, Michael Roman, and nine others were arrested, according to NBC New York.
