Yidden Arrested for Assisting in the Arrest of a Gang of Robbers

Crown Heights, Brooklyn –- In an unprecedented attack on vigilant and concerned residents of our community that are passionate about our safety, Police held two Yidden for allegedly beating a suspect.

The incident began in front of 770 Eastern Pkwy when a group of 3 Black males and 1 Black female assaulted and robbed a young Latino teen, the group shoved him to the ground and took his backpack, then attempted to flee the scene.

Many Jews who witnessed the incident began chasing the perpetrators, three of which were caught on Kingston and Eastern Pkwy. Police were called and arrived on scene and arrested one of the three that were apprehended and released two of them, the male and female, apparently due to the combination of their young age and inconclusive evidence against them.

A short while later people that were standing around spotted the fourth teen that was involved in the beating and robbery standing within the crowd and trying to see what happened to his friends. A short pursuit ensued and the perp was apprehended on Union St between Kingston and Albany.

Police were called to the secondary scene, only from there things went sour. The responding officers began interviewing the suspect and a group of Blacks and a Muslim that were all standing around the suspect, and a short while later two officers approached two of the Yidden that were watching what was going on and told them to accompany them down to the precinct without detailing any reasons why.

After the two Yidden were placed in the police car the group that made the outrages allegations were seen laughing and smiling with glee at what they perceived was the apparent misfortune of the two Yidden.

The victim was brought over to the second scene in order to identify the suspect only he wasn’t able to make a positive identification, though numerous bystanders made a conclusive ID of the suspect.

The suspect was taken in, but was not placed under arrest. The Yidden were released after being held ‘for questioning’.

CrownHeights.info later learned that the fourth perp was in fact later arrested.

    Readers: Please stay tuned for an extensive Op-Ed with my detailed accounts of the detention of the Bochur and myself.

    CORRECTION: My detention yesterday was in fact not illegal, it was sanctioned under new laws after 9/11 which allows police to hold a suspect for questioning up to 24 hours.

    I am sure Hanina will bring this up at his regular meeting with Chief Fox and Inspector Vega.

  • NYPD a failure in CH

    the NYPD continue to fail to protect our community.

  • Led

    Now raise a cry in protest. WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON IN OUR COMMUNITY? ENOUGH ALREADY! We have to do more things like this to harass the PD.

  • IG

    Webby- You should file a lawsuit against the city, I believe that you have a strong case. Make them accountable for their actions.. If you need a lawyer contact me via mail.

  • Avi

    webby why don’t you send a detailed report of what happened to all the newspapers (if you didn’t already).

  • Nice Day

    What would Big Al do??

    Riot, loud marches w/ blood-hungry shvartzes screaming about racism etc. Looting, attacking Jewish-owned stores, press conferences, City Hall marches etc.

    What do we do??

    Elect morons to the CHJCC who do nothing to protect our people. And of course, we keep quiet.

    Have a nice day.

  • where-s the leadirship

    it is sad, but its our fault.
    i mean, not my fault and probably not you’rs either, but its ‘us’ that are causing it. heres why: remember the incident in boro park? i hope you do, because it showed exactly how much were missing. fine, we bichlal are not so violent etc. but were totally off.
    were in the world is our leadership?
    what are they busy with?
    are they busy?
    how long will we have to wait in order to get some kind of leadership that if such a situation like this were to occur again, they wouldnt get off the case untill things are made clear?
    why cant we have protest’s?
    why is it that when we do have protests 500 people show up and not every member of anash?

  • happy pappy ch guy

    to “CH reident considering moving” why don’t you just move out then you fool. You are often here to mention you are moving out. Just move already. No one is following you don’t worry, you’ll have all the free open space whereever you go. Not to worry there is no crime whatsoever anywhere else!! Try upstate, catskills, oh for sure Monsey perhaps super clean. Baltimore yup. Oh try VA TECH area all white and solid no problem area. 5Towns is great..I hear armed home robberies are down. Movin South? no problem So Fl is great I hear very few cars are being stolen there. yada yada.

    Webby, I’m very proud of you – you are a real mentsch! Good luck.

    You should consult with Crown Heights alumnus and Chabad friend Curtis Sliwa and find out how he dealt with the police when the police went after the Guardian Angels back in the ’70’s for trying to make NY safer. I heard Sliwa say he got the Guardian Angels idea from the Jewish patrols in Crown Heights, where he grew up, and that he remembers the Jewish patrol in Crown Heights saved him once.

  • CHer

    That shvans (he’s the worst of them all) and all those other cops who some in this community cozy up to … Shame on you!

    This is the way they want to stop crime in our community!

    Chanina, get a real job!

  • EX-NYPD suporter

    this is not the first time this has happend nor will it be the last.
    we as a comunity must put aside our differences and come together for the common good. THIS IS OUR HOME AND WE MUST PROTECT IT!!!

  • A. Lawyeer

    Sue them in federal court, Webby (sec. 1984). A blatant violation of freedom of the press!

  • To a Lawyer:

    If your a lawyer, how come you can’t spell laywer correctly?

    Webby, you should sue the city for unlawful arrest. There are police misconduct lawyers around town that specialize in this kind of work. The officers won’t have to pay, the city will, but if enough complaints are filed against an officer, and investigation is made.

  • anybody knows the law?

    any lawyer out there?
    i have two questions:
    1-does it make a difference if you were ever arrested or if you’re free of crime, meaning dis the bachur’s status change in any way although he was arrested wrongfully and only for a short while?

    2-could you sue the police department etc?

    webby im very proud of you keep it up!

  • stand

    the blacks it seems are smarter than was assumed….they are making it very difficult for us to live here….kind of like crusades and pogroms dont u think?

  • Sam

    Webby, I am not happy that you got arrested but if someone HAD TO GET ARRESTED i am glad it was you. WHy? You know firsthand of the abuse and bullying and the anti semitism that goes on on a daily basis. and you are not scared to open your mouth and tell it to them like it is. We stadn behind and trust that you will fulfill this vital mission.

  • Resident

    If our CHJCC would stop their stupid political infighting then maybe less Yidden would be getting hurt. The blame falls on them for childish playground style fighting.

  • Moshe Gelber

    webby, you have every right to photograph the happenings in public spaces.Dont let the police intimidate you.

  • Making you fell good

    The Alter Rebbe and Freidike Rebbe also got arrested, you are in good company

  • obsevation

    Its pretty obvios that the police read these stories and comments.
    so you might want to considre that when you vent!

  • JFYI

    the CHCC needs to stay on good terms with the local precinct and also political figures

  • INSPECTOR VEGA READS THIS WEBSITE

    I heard inspector Vega mention THIS WEBSITE by name.

    “CN wrote:

    To CN,
    You are absolutely right on!! If not for Curtis I would’ve been beat up during the riots. He and the angels walked people to where they needed to be..better job than these farkakta cops do.

    G-d bless us and protect our community.

    The Crown Heights Riot was a three-day riot in the Crown Heights neighborhood of New York City starting on August 19, 1991.

    if any of the readers remember the time before the riot ?

    it was the same as now .

    the mayor was jewish and the police was anti-semite .
    the next mayor was black and jews were hurt and killed.

    I suggest everyone buy a legal gun to protect his family . becouse guss what

    THE NEXT RIOT IS ON ITS WAY >

    i see it on the policeman and woman face thy hate jews and everything to hurt us.

    and the crime of arresting a media men will be the small crime thy commited here.

    remember this anti-semite are the same as in the koch dinkins days .

    buy guns more guns in your hand so when thy riot again protect yourself from the blue mafia and the criminals.

  • brc

    The NYPD is just fed-up with us lubavitchers trying to run this town as we please. We don’t cause any real trouble, but we’re not authority… thats where the NYPD steps in as they do in every other single town in New York City. They’re not anti-semites, they’re just doing their job. Its us lubavitchers that think because their giving us parking tickets for double parking on Kingston Avenue on a Friday afternoon that their anti-semites. Try double parking or parking for that matter on Broadway in Manhattan… within seconds you would have an auxilary cop giving you a ticket. We need to stop thinking we’re the target and just follow the law.

  • teepee

    the cops feel derived of power when us jews try to help catch perps. thats what annoys them- not that their anti-semites. they dont like meddlers trying to do their job (i.e. shomrim)

  • CH BEST

    to the small brc

    if you are a member of the organized law and crime organization thats your problem .

    but try to park on brooklyn and president and guss what no tiket but the same times all this blue mafia are very bussy a few blocks down on brooklyn and lefferts .

    you know why ?

    becouse on brooklyn and lefferts is a jewish school and on president and broooklyn is a non jewish school.

    so when time is to pick up kids you cant even find a cop to direct traffic on brooklyn and president .

    and you know what this is documented .

    and in do time this blue mafia will answere in federal court .

    but i hope we will be strong when the next pogrom comes (and it will come)
    we be strong to protect our family.

    and please dont give me the bs about police doing the job.

    the job is to catch the murderers of EFRAYM KLEIN HY“D

    and protect the shchuna from all this so called ”kids” that rub us and kill us.

    and since we have no one to count on we shell hope and pray .

    IM HASHEM LO YISHMOR IR SHOVE SHOKAD SHOMER.
