Last month, on December 6th a wonderful Dyker Heights residents saw one thief jump down into the sewer. She called the police and the 68th Precinct was slow to respond and then didn’t do anything to help. The Dyker Heights resident waited for hours to see the thief come out of the manhole. Info:
In April 2025, three thieves entered a sewer on 17th Avenue and 82nd Street. They were trying to steal money and jewelry. They were arrested. Info:
Politicians have failed to communicate with Dyker Heights about these thieves. Alexa Aviles is the NYC Council representative – she doesn’t know she represents this block. Andrew Gounardes is the senator and he’s too busy playing on social media to address any real issues.
Why do we have local leaders if they aren’t telling residents what is going on?
