For those of you who were wondering why the entire intersection of Kingston Avenue & Eastern Parkway was filled with police cars. It was in response to a shooting that took place on Lincoln Place between Kingston and Albany . The shooting took place at around 11:30 on Friday night, when a dispute involving two black males ended with one shooting the other.

The block already home to many Lubavitchers is part of our community, can all rest assured, police have succeeded in apprehending the suspect and have removed another gun from our streets.

Purim a joyous Jewish celebration of life

Bradenton Herald

Ron Berman has a reason for relishing the Jewish holiday of Purim on Tuesday.

The reason is called life.

Berman, 42, who now lives in Lakewood Ranch, contracted blood poisoning while living in Costa Rica in 2001.

Threatened with losing his left arm and perhaps his life, he awoke from a coma to see a rabbi near his bed.

“The rabbi, who was from a Chabad in Costa Rica, said, ‘I didn’t let them cut off your left arm because a Jewish man needs his left arm to wear the t’fillin,’ ” Berman said.
