October 18, 2023Car Robbery – Helicopters Over Bay Ridge

Bay Ridge residents knew something was wrong when helicopters continued flying over Bay Ridge and hovering over Colonial Road.
Thieves driving a stolen BMW sped down 4th Avenue. People estimated that the car was traveling around 40 – 50 MPH down the Avenue.
The thieves crashed the vehicle on 3rd Avenue and Ovington. The suspects bolted from the car and ran on foot down the block (from the Brooklyn Firefly).
Councilman Justin Brannan told a Facebook group about the car theft, but didn’t bother telling the neighborhood. The lack of communication when things are happening in the neighborhood makes people uneasy.
