We Need More Police Officers in Brooklyn!
I’m glad Richie Barsamian is talking about crime and the need for more police officers in Brooklyn.
NY also needs to offer young men and women more of an incentive to become police officers. NYPD officers can no longer retire after 20 years. Senator Jessica Scarcella-Spanton representing Staten Island and Coney Island has a bill to reinstate retirement after twenty years. Steve Chan just started in Albany this January and already he is co-sponsoring the bill!
See the bill: https://legislation.nysenate.gov/pdf/bills/2025/S2710

Thieves Break Into Dyker Heights Home 3:40 am
Dyker Heights residents in the 80’s between 11th and 12th Avenue shared that thieves broke into their home at 3:40 am. The thieves walked around in their home, but did not go to the bedrooms. Thankfully, they are alright and were not harmed.
The Dyker residents encouraged the community to lock their windows and put on their house alarms overnight.
The thieves used a crowbar and hammer to open the window. It took them awhile to open the window. The thieves were young.
They home owners believe the thieves were looking for car keys.
Ironically, Councilman Justin Brannan, the politician who has ignored Dyker Heights for years wrote online that he asked the NYPD to patrol the area late at night. Brannan is running for election in June, so he wants to look like he is doing something.

2.5 Years After Dyker Heights Reported Extreme Flooding, Brannan Says They Will Get Help
In September 2022, residents in Dyker Heights told the community about how extreme the flooding was in their basements at a Community Board 10 Meeting (seniors were walking in waist-high water).
Extreme Flooding in Homes on 10th Avenue in Dyker Heights After It Rains
Senator Andrew Gounardes and Councilman Brannan promised them help. Seniors in the area explained how fearful they were of rain storms due to the flooding.
One resident returned the following year and spoke about how he and his wife have to spend so much time cleaning up his flooded basement. Community Board 10 never provided an update or mentioned the problem again.
Today, the politician who is running for election in the June primary, announced that money has been put towards the infrastructure project. No timeline provided.
I guess it’s better late than never. We need a new senator and City Council Representative as these two aren’t communicating and taking care of community issues in a timely manner.

While Rape Increases in the 68th Precinct, the Local Papers Want to Talk About Nonsense
There have been six rapes in three months in the 68th Precinct. No one is pointing to the Crime statistics this week and saying crime is down.
Senator Andrew Gounardes and Councilman Justin Brannan are too busy writing about Trump on social media, rather than updating the community on whether the rapists have been caught?!
Yet, strangely local papers such as The Brooklyn Paper printed a story about the Internet nonsense over a rotten red onion.

Teen Sexually Assaulted on S79 Bus in Bay Ridge and Politicians and The Police Are Silent
A teen was sexually assaulted on the S79 bus at 86th Street and 4th Avenue in Bay Ridge on Tuesday, April 1st around 4:00 pm.
The police waited until today, Saturday, April 5th to share this information:
The police are looking for the man in the photo above. They wrote that he stood next to the teen and forcibly touched the teen’s breast.
The man has a medium complexion and he was wearing a black jacket, gray New Balance t-shirt, gray pants, and white sneakers.
Why did the police wait four days to share this information? Who else could have been sexually assaulted and didn’t tell anyone?
It doesn’t say that the teen (or her parents) reported the assault, but they must have.
What message did the teen, who was assaulted understand about this? That an assault was not important enough for the police to speak about for four days AND for politicians to be silent about.
Why didn’t politicians tell the community on April 2nd? Justin Brannan and Andrew Gouanrdes claim they are in communication with the police? Why didn’t they tell families so people could alert their children, who use the buses in this area?
If you know who this is, call NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or put tips here: https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/, or on X @NYPDTips.
