Shomrim Apprehend Car Burglar
Crown Heights [CHI] — At around 9:30 tonight, an African-American male in his mid 20s was seen by a number of witnesses smashing the window of a Jewish owned mini-van on Albany Ave., in front of the ULY simcha hall. Shomrim were immediately called.
Shomrim arrived at the scene and chased the perp down Crown St. and up Troy Ave. About 15 Shomrim members converged on the block from all directions; the man was trapped, caught and held for the police in front of Bunch-O-Bagels.
Meanwhile, a cop cruiser saw a bunch of Jews chasing a black man, and, fearing a bias attack, called in a code 85 (Emergency backup) to his dispatcher.
About 10 police cars arrived just as Shomrim had the perp pinned to the ground, and demanded to know what was going on. Seeking to clarify the situation, a Shomrim member ran back to the crime scene, found a few witnesses who were still standing there, and brought them back to Troy Ave. where they recounted what they saw to the NYPD officers.
Satisfied with the eyewitness accounts, the officers took the man into custody, and thanked Shomrim for a job well done.
Guy who was there.
Dear Crown Heights Jewish Community,
When you see a bunch of your fellow Jews chasing someone, screaming thief…and one of your fellow Jews tackles that “thief” and calls you over to help hold him down, don’t just stand there staring, allowing the thief to get back up and keep running.
Thank You and many thanks and blessings to the Shomrim, you guys are awesome!

OK FINE – Great job Shomrim – with a little bit of mazal and sheer guts, and courage, the NYPD was on our side tonite. DUH.
Tchuva time
If no witness… this could have been anouther shuchat situation.
whats the 311

Thank G-d Shomrim are trained and knew how to prevent another “shuchat situation”.
The situation with Shuchat is indeed very strange. They claim in that event that Charles was throwing rocks at a 14 year old girl (lately they added another girl to the story), yet nobody took the girl to file a police report. Nobody called hatzolah for the girl “which had rocks thrown on here” etc…etc… Vda”l
under the bus
Shuchat was thrown under the bus by his own people.

FYI Shomrim do not go after any perp unless there is a honest complaint called in.
Daven for Shuchat!
Strange, innit? If Jews chase a shvartze, it’s a suspected bias attack. When Jews are victims, it’s their own fault.
to comment 3
this would not be another shuchat situation for in fact the perp was surrounded by shomrim and the bochor but he wasnt touched by them at all! the rest of the article is accurate. i was there I saw it all.
early bird catches the worm
Be careful. When it gets dark early the gonefs start early

This is probably the same shmuck who busted my window a week ago on Troy Ave by the OK and he is probably also the one responsible for the car broken into on Troy last night also across from the OK.
Jewish dude
We need more shomrim in Brooklyn to tackle this crime wave.
-Fearing a bias attack- ? How typical
Please pay no attention to the police when they ‘fear bias attacks’ by Jews. They are scared of the blacks and are subject to the age old irrational dislike of Jews. Therefor will want make it appear to be the Jewish person’s fault, unless there is irrefutable evidence that they can’t try to hide. Don’t be intimidated or hesitate to defend a Jew or his property – even when there are no witnesses. Gotta trust in G-d.
