18th Avenue Feast – Two Police Officers Maced
People were enjoying a beautiful night at the 18th Avenue Feast on Saturday night after a perfect beach day.
Then the neighborhood saw police cars race to 18th Avenue. Everyone knew something terrible had happened in the 62nd Precinct.
Sadly, two teen girls had a fight and the police had to break it up. The girls continued to hit each other, even when a police officer was holding them. Festival attendees gathered around to watch the fight.
Then two men maced two police officers at the St. Rosalie Feast.
Around the same time at 7116 – 18th Avenue (71st Street), there was smoke in an apartment building that was being investigated (more emergency response vehicles to the area).
I couldn’t find any news about it this morning. For the last few years, the police have had to amp up patrols at the 18th Avenue Feast. It’s a good event, but there are always a few people trying to ruin things for everyone else.
Update: News 12 did a small story here:
