Burglar Apprehended By Alert Residents, and Traffic Cop
CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — A man was surprised when he walked into his house and found a man, who definitely did not belong there, roaming around. When asked what he was doing there he bolted, and fled.
The incident took place in a house on Carroll Street, just off Kingston Avenue. The suspect, a black man in his mid 30’s and around 6 feet tall, fled after being confronted. A chase ensued, and the suspect fled down Kingston with many more joining the chase.
An alert traffic enforcement agent saw the group running is his direction, and grabbed the suspect and pinned him to the ground and called for police backup. Police took over 6 minutes to respond, and when they did they promptly arrested the suspect.

I don’t think your description of the burglar was necessary. How often are the burglars in CH anything else?
we need more cops
tell the mayor we need more cops…the city isnt hiring and they want to fire cops

Leave it to Mayor Mike–I’ll bet that traffic cop really just wanted to give the guy a ticket for parking in a house without a car.

HOW LONG WILL THEY KEEP HIM BEFORE LETTING HIM OUT AGAIN IN THE STREET?

hey nice of the traffic cop – nice move – guys look – he’s just doing hos job. He probably works just as hard to make an honest living. Probably feels bad he gives tickets but thats his JOB and 99% of the time we are probably in the wrong – its not easy here but it is what it is.

Hey, I don’t live in CH, but every time I visit, I see frummies park their cars of Kingston Av, without putting a quarter in the meter…. until Moshiach comes, we are obligated to follow rules of the countries we live in!

Which ‘HIM’? Do you mean the traffic agent, or the crook? :-)

Uh, I asked for the source of that statement in normative Halachah, which you didn’t provide because there *isn’t* any. I wasn’t asking for an explanation.
And, oh yeah, in Rome they worship J.C. and hang out in the Vatican. So, when I’m in Rome, I should do the same?

Thumbs up to the Traffic officer.
All his colleagues should learn from him and Stop harassing NYC with tickets.
