Another Wild Night In Crown Heights

Thursday night June 16 2005 at 11:42PM: Shomrim was called to respond to Carroll St. and Troy Ave. where a bunch of (about nine) black teenager were attacking two Jew’s, as a mater of fact they were father and son, on their way to a wedding at Oholie Torah. They were setting off fire works and aimed it at them, in addition they also threw water balloons. All the wile screaming racial slurs.

NYPD was called at the same time as Shomrim but Shomrim got there about 4mins after the call was received as opposed to NYPD which got there 20mins later (no joke).

The Shvartzes ran into the building as Shomrim arrived at the scene and then when the police finally showed up the two men filed a police report and were given a ride by a Shomrim member to the wedding.

Friday morning June 17 2005 12:15AM: two car’s involved in an accident on Union St. between Albany Ave. and Troy Ave. involving a police officer’s wife and a citizen. EMS, five squad cars and 2 unmarked Police cars responded to the scene. This happened when one of the cars was trying to pull out of a parking spot and the other car came down the block too fast and couldn’t stop. No one was hurt. Neither of the drivers were Jewish.

Friday morning June 17 2005 8:55AM: a pedestrian struck on crown and Nostrand Ave. Shomrim got the call and responded immediately. EMS was on scene and the patient was transported to Kings County Hospital Trauma Center where the patient was listed in stable condition. No Jew’s were involved B”H Shomrim were there to verify that.

Orthodox Site Becomes Orange

This from “The Jewish Journal Of Greater Los Angeles”
A Chabad-Lubavitch news site has adopted an orange color scheme to protest the Israeli government’s Gaza withdrawal plan.

“I’m sitting here in Brooklyn, N.Y.,” Shmais.com’s CEO and founder, Levi Hodakov, told JTA, “and I’m really feeling for the Jews in Gaza here.”

Hodakov said the initiative aims to send a message to his readers to oppose the withdrawal and to inspire them to pray and learn on the Gaza Jews’ behalf.

“Every little bit counts,” he said.

Spectacular manhunt follows Crown Heights mugging

By Yitzchok Wagshul – Editor of Crown Heights Chronicle, on behalf of SHOMRIM CROWN HEIGHTS DIVISION and crownheights.info

A spectacular manhunt Wednesday morning shook up the routine of residents on Montgomery and Crown Streets between Albany and Troy Avenues, as police searched for two young men who had just attempted to mug a woman at gunpoint.

At approximately 9:15 a.m., the victim was walking to work along Montgomery Street between Kingston and Brooklyn Avenues, when she noticed two black males across the street from her acting suspiciously. They were talking in a conspiratorial way and gave her the impression that they were eying a bicycle chained to a corner up ahead. Each wore white mesh shirts and one wore a white kerchief, or “do-rag,” over his head.
