Picture of the Day – The Police Response to Carjacking

A reader sent us a picture this morning of what he himself called “the polices response to the carjacking”. In order to increase the community’s sense of protection the police park empty vehicles near high crime areas, so following yesterdays carjacking the police parked a three-wheeled scooter near the scene of the incident.


The photo taker also joked, saying “thank g-d there aren’t more carjackings in the neighborhood, what will they do when they run out of scooters?”

    their was a scooter on lefferts and brooklyn, for 2 months straight after the shooting………..they think it will solve the issues and keep the pple quiet from complaining

    Too little–too late and until the Judicial system starts punishing these people instead of just slapping their hands, you will have continiously this problem

    It’s great to not only not work with the police, but to make fun of their efforts- GOOD ONE!

    Now The buses have to double park in order to drop off the kids,

  • This is your chance

    For all the wisecrackers that leave their comments here you are missing a great opportunity. Stand-up comedians are in great demand during these hard times.

    NYC and the NYPD could supply you with enough SHTICKT for a long career.

  • MAKES GOOD SENSE

    People who are commiting the crimes dont live here, therfore they see the police car and assume there is a police officer nearby. I feel as if let the community think it is a joke, let the criminal think it is real.
