As Hate Crimes Escalates

The 2 reported incidents in the past week, slashing of the Hatzalah ambulances tires and the assault on the 50 year old man on Carroll and Schenectady, there was a meeting about all this with the local councilmen at the CHJCC on Kingston Ave. where we heard that we will get increased patrols and more security.

Now COL reported that Chanina Sperlin got a call from Mayor Bloomberg asking to be kept informed and that the police will take all necessary measures to capture these law beakers.

Mayor of New York Promises to Punish Lawbreakers

As a result of the recent rise in crime and damage done to residents of Crown Heights, Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York called Rabbi Chanina Sperlin, member of the Crown Heights Community Council yesterday, telling him that he ordered the police to take all necessary measures to locate the lawbreakers. The mayor also asked Sperlin to update date him as to ongoing developments and gave him the number of this cellular phone for this purpose.

But what’s really enraging is the fact that yesterday the NYPD “distributed” 1,500 police officers to the various precincts around New York City, and out of the 1,500 officers we only got SIX!!! Now that would scare them off, the 2 extra patrols we will get, and the police are really doing everything they can, which can’t be much.
