Man Forcibly Touching Woman in Bay Ridge 7/10
On Monday, July 10th, a man grabbed a woman on the butt across from 9801 Shore Road right before 12:00 noon.
The officer writing this sign wrote the victim was annoyed. That description minimizes the act. WE ARE ANNOYED THIS WAS NOT SHARED WITH THE COMMUNITY. The victim must have been SHOCKED that a stranger was touching her body near noon in Bay Ridge!
Also left out of the description was the man’s red sneakers. Finally, it says the man is 32 years old, but they don’t know his hair color or eye color. How do they know he is 32 years old?
We should have seen Captain Schafer share this information with the community on the NYPD 68th Precinct social media accounts, but she didn’t.
Not one politician representing Bay Ridge shared this with the community. This happened a week ago and Councilman Brannan didn’t think the neighborhood needed to know!
Thank you to the residents who are printing the signs and sharing the information to keep neighbors safe!

Old Sign in Bay Ridge – Verrazano Deli
On the corner of 4th Avenue and 92nd Street, a deli closed. They are renovating the place and removed the old sign.
Under it was a blast from the past –> the Verrazano Deli sign, which residents are feeling nostalgic about.

Justin Brannan Does Not Support NYC Retirees
I saw someone on Facebook write that they spoke to Justin Brannan and Brannan said he supports NYC Retirees. I knew this wasn’t true, so I asked Marianne Pizzitola on Twitter.
Pizzitola responded that Brannan had not supported the retirees in keeping their healthcare and this photo of Brannan with other NYC Council members who aren’t supporting retirees.

The retirees also noted that Ari Kagan has backed them since the beginning!
Justin Brannan wrote the retirees a strange email and incorrectly told them the Taylor Law allows THEM to collectively bargain. (See email) The retirees do not get to collectively bargain! It’s strange Justin Brannan does not know that!
If Brannan didn’t like the legislation introduced into NYC, he could have written other legislation. Justin Brannan has done nothing to help the retirees keep their healthcare plans.
Yesterday, the retirees fired back at Brannan social media:
I also saw a person incorrectly state on Facebook that Justin Brannan’s mother was part of the retirees. While Brannan’s mother is a retired teacher, she worked for Catholic schools, so her healthcare is not affected. (See here)
Update: The Judge ordered in favor of the NYC Retirees!

A Lot of Revel Scooters in Bay Ridge Recently
Revel is a electric scooter sharing company. Recently, Bay Ridge is seeing a lot of these bikes on the streets.

Around JJ Carty Park, multiple parking spots are taken by the construction company working at the park. Now Revel scooters are taking up spots. I wonder who Revel lobbied?
How is a private company able to use public parking spots? We saw this happen before with Get Around Car Sharing (and years ago by Cars2Go). Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso was lobbied. (See here)
Community Board 10 had a meeting and ONLY Get Around Car Sharing company presented. (Info) The California company received several permanent parking spots in our community, even though they had never had a car-sharing company in NYC!
Why didn’t Community Board 10 reject the car sharing companies because Bay Ridge already has at least two car sharing companies that paid rent (at the old Century’s Parking lot). (Info)
Community Board 10 should have revealed that Reynoso was lobbied (See here) and that Senator Andrew Gounardes supported GetAround. (See video of Senator Gounardes)
There is no one standing up for Bay Ridge! Elect new people.

Why Is The Motive for the Brick Throwing at Senator Iwen Chu’s Office a Secret?
A forty-two year old man, Mou Hu was arrested for alledgedly throwing the bricks through the senator’s window, but they haven’t said what charges he will face. (Info here)
Usually when a crime is committed in Bay Ridge, the police or Justin Brannan will quickly release that the crime was targeted or “done by an EDP” within hours of the crime happening. (EDP- Emotionally Disturbed Person).
Yesterday, I realized it must have been targeted and 1010 Wins wrote that this incident appeared to be targeted. (Info)
What’s Mou Hu’s beef with Senator Chu or her staffer? Why is it being kept a secret?
Mou Hu was charged with a felony count of criminal mischief. (Source)

Weed Has Been Sold Illegally in Bay Ridge for Over a Year. Today Brannan Says He is Going to Do Something
Today, Justin Brannan commented about the illegal weed shops on social media. (See here) It was strange to see his comment because Brannan failed to do anything about the illegal weed shops for over a year!
In 2021, Senator Andrew Gounardes voted in favor of legalizing marijuana without making sure there was a plan in place to begin this program in NYC. (See bill)
Last Spring, smoke shops opened all over our neighborhood and started to sell cannabis. Justin Brannan and Andrew Gounardes did nothing. Their base wants to buy cannabis. In March, Councilman Brannan responded “One Love” to this comment:
Some Bay Ridge residents went into the smoke shops and investigated. They were shocked that stores were selling cannabis and edibles, even though they didn’t have a license. As a result, a few stores were closed for the day, but opened the following day. (See here)
Some young teens were able to purchase weed in Bay Ridge because of Andrew Gounardes’ carelessness. It has to be very tempting for children because these shops are all over the neighborhood. In November 2022, the Captain of the 68th Precinct said there were 22 shops in this area. (See here)
A few smoke shops were raided, but most still remain open.
In June, Kathy Hochul told us that she was going to have the stores selling cannabis illegally fined and the landlords of these shops fined as well. (Source) We haven’t seen her have any stores closed in our neighborhood since Governor Hochul’s announcement.
Unfortunately, police officers don’t have a tool to measure how high someone is when there is a car accident. The police can check how much alcohol someone consumed with a breathalyzer test.
At this beginning of this month, Andrew Gounardes moved his office out of this neighborhood.
In November, please vote Justin Brannan out of office for gaslighting our community.

Tire Slasher on Ft. Hamilton Parkway + 90’s
Overnight, a man was on Fort Hamilton Parkway from 92nd Street to 95th Street slashing tires.
Almost twenty cars had their tires slashed. One resident shared that her father-in-law had all four tires slashed. The video of the man shown above was turned over to the police.
7/16 Update: This was not mentioned by any politician. Is it because they don’t know or they don’t care?

Shohsaroy Restaurant Opened on 3rd Avenue
Shohsaroy Restaurant opened at 7316 3rd Avenue. They serve food from Uzbekistan.
This location is where Catrina’s used to be, so they did a lot to renovate the place. (Before Catrina’s, this was Longbow. Bay Ridge residents added: Before Longbow it was Canedo’s. And before that it was The Diane Shop.)
Good luck to the new owners.
