Man on Scooter Tried to Escape the NYPD
Photo from Loud Labs Video
A guy on a scooter tried to escape the NYPD on the bike path in Bay Ridge – near the Verrazzano Bridge.
Watch Loudlabs video and you can hear the police sirens, but the guy on the scooter continued riding, instead of pulling over.
Once the man on the scooter crashed, he jumped up and tried to run away. The police officers ran after him and arrested him!
Loudlabs always shares the latest news with Bay Ridge!
Councilman Justin Brannan sponsored the legislation to allow scooters and ebikes on NYC streets – he didn’t just vote for it. You can see Brannan is a sponser here and here.
While some obey the law, many scooter and ebike users know they are untraceable and that’s why they will try to escape the police. Everyone needs a license, so they are traceable and accountable.
Brannan is unwilling to update the law to make this happen, even though residents complain about ebikes and scooters every week.

Man Slashed at 95th Street in Bay Ridge
This morning, a 54-year-old man was slashed on the collarbone when he got off the train at the 95th Street station in Bay Ridge at 5:45 am. The NY Post wrote that it was an unprovoked attack. (See here)
The NY Post shared that the victim was slashed with a switchblade and is now at NYU Langone Hospital. We hope he heals up fast.
The suspect was in his 30’s and ran off.
This station in Bay Ridge has become problematic because the homeless men that ride into the station are not receiving the help they need. Andrew Gounardes and Justin Brannan have taken photos in the station and continue to leave the homeless pn the train because they think we don’t care.
Neither politician mentioned the slashing or warned early morning riders in Bay Ridge that the killer is still on the loose, but Ari Kagan wasn’t afraid to talk about it.

RIP Milorad Rajacic – Legs Severed & Killed on the Sidewalk By Teen Driver in Brooklyn
Last night a 17-year-old drove his Tesla on Ocean Parkway.
The car drove up onto the sidewalk on Avenue M and the car struck Milorad Rajacic, another man, a motorcycle and the a street light. (See photos)
Milorad Rajacic, a 76-year-old man had both his legs severed. He was brought to Maimonides Hospital, but he passed away. I can’t imagine how painful and horrific this was.
Milorad Rajacic’s family must be in shock that he was killed while on the sidewalk! Prayers for his family and friends.
“The Daily News wrote that the teen driver lost control of his speeding Tesla.” (Source) The NY Post reported that the teen left the scene of the accident. (Source)
Senator Andrew Gounardes claims to be a street activist, but Gounardes didn’t mention this.
