Two Unmarked Squad cars around the silver SUV (one on the sidewalk).

Tonight [Monday] at approximately 8:00pm a silver Toyota SUV was seen driving down the service lane of Eastern Parkway bet Troy and Albany Avenues. As it passed in front of the Chovevei Torah building an unmarked Chevy Impala behind it lit up in warning lights as the police inside sounded their sirens. The SUV then pulled over allowing the emergency vehicle to pass, while another unmarked police car approached from the island on the left side of the SUV. After a thorough search of the driver, the other male passenger, and the vehicle, the two female passengers were asked to exit the SUV and the two males were arrested. The police then parked the SUV and drove off with the two suspects in their unmarked cars, without lights and sirens, as if nothing was wrong.

Interestingly enough, the two female passengers, who were not searched or questioned, seemed to be in a rather happy mood notwithstanding the circumstances, and were even seen joking with cops as they left the scene. This may lead you to believe that this was all part of a larger sting operation, which ended in the arrest of the two male passengers.

    very interesting story, good coverage too. although, i dont understand why the cops should leave the scene with lights and sirens if no one’s life is in danger? imagine they get into an accident on the way back to the station and the guy sues, and in court they say "yea, we were going with lights and sirens because we needed to get the criminals back quickly"… i dont think that would cut it.

    just a taught, its possiable that the female passengers were also undercover cops.

    who knows these days

    As the end of the article suggests and ìéôà ù also mentioned, it is very possible that this was part of a sting operation qnd the two female passengers were part of the scheme. They were possibly also undercover agents working with the police to bust something or other.
