- Glenn Blain

AN UPPER West Side pol says her district has been overrun by rats and is demanding the city and state do something about it.

Assemblywo­man Linda Rosenthal, a Democrat, said her constituen­ts have “all but given up” on using parks in her neighborho­od because of the rodents. “Anyone who’s familiar with the Upper West Side knows the area is overrun with rats,” she said.

City Hall rep Olivia Lapeyroler­ie said, “We are committed to reducing rat activity in New York City.”
