CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] – A bizarre scene unfolded earlier this Tuesday morning, at around 11:00am a city bus pulled to a stop on Crown and Kingston alongside a few Community Policing Officers and the driver asked them for help with removing a passenger, a Black female who was spitting, being loud and did not pay the bus fair.

The officers boarded and escorted the woman off the bus, which is when the scene unfolded with the woman who read one of the officers nametag and recognized it as being Jewish and began saying things like he is infecting the force and other things to that affect, the officers responded with just waiving her off and telling her to go about her business.
A few minutes later a Jewish lady walked up to the cluster of cops and told that that a black lady just spit on her and cursed at her, then moments later the lady came back and continued shouting at the cops and the Jewish lady.
The officers deemed her an ‘Emotionally Disturbed Person’ and had EMS respond and transport her to the ‘G’ building, the psychiatric ward at Kings County Hospital.

She was screaming “i did not do anything i did not do anything” and number of passer-byers where wandering what exactly did she do – because very few saw the beginning which was at the bus. Thank you for letting everyone know.

I must say, we are very lucky to have a few out standing cops here at the 71pct!
no#1 Sergeant Bobby Troys!
He seems to always do the right thing and his heart is in the right place! Thank you!
We also have here 2 very fine Officers which keep there eye out on Kingston Ave.
They are officer Rich Silverstein with his partner Doug Ayres.
These 2 officer, and Serg. Troys, has shown me and the community that there are great cops out there!
I hope and pray that the new C.O. from the 71st PCT will keep them right where they are.
I am happy to say that I have seen much change in the last 3 months! May you keep up your great job.
I am happy to call you a friend. Life time member of the crown heights community

Thanks to the officers who did an great job in taking care of the situation! It could have easily gotten out of hand if they had not been so quick to respond to the situation or had dealt with it in an indifferent manner.
Sad to say but the Emotionally Disturbed woman is a regular sight here on Kingston ave and more often than not can be heard muttering some sort of racist garbage.
I hope she gets the help that she needs and is not left sitting uncared for at Kings County ….
Huh?
Kings County?
That means she was given the death penalty as evidenced by the shocking surveillance footage of that poor neglected woman who died on the emergency room floor.
