Warning: Dog Owners Near 12th Ave & 67th St.
If you have a dog, avoid walking it near trees around 12th Avenue between 67th and 68th Street.
A homeowner there noticed rats and put down rat poisoning to get rid of them so the problem doesn’t get any worse. But there is not a warning sign for dog owners.
Another neighbor shared the information so everyone can stay away from the poison.

RIP Nyheem Wright.
Nyheem Wright was only seventeen-year-old.
Photo from News 12 Video
Wright was chased by five teenage boys in Coney Island. They caught up with him, beat him and stabbed on Mermaid Avenue yesterday around 3:20 pm in the Rite Aid parking lot. (Source)
The latest information said the police believe it was gang related. (See here) It is unclear why Nyheem was attacked. (Source)
Nyheem was brought to Maimonides yesterday. He had a collapsed lung and punctured vein. Nyheem died this afternoon. (Source)
Nyheem was a senior at K728 Liberation Diploma Plus High School and was graduating in a few months.
RIP. Prayers for this Nyheem’s family and friends. This is the worst week of their lives. Hopefully, those responsible for his death are arrested soon.

Bing Bong Dyker Heights 13th Ave. & 78th Street
Josephine shared this picture tonight.
This is not the same vehicle – it’s a new eye sore for Dyker Heights.
This vehicle was in an accident. You can see the A pillar (where the front of the door would mount) is smashed in.
This picture was taken in front of the new pot shop on 13th Avenue and 78th Street.
This vehicle also has no tickets.
Keep sharing pictures Brooklyn. No one would believe what goes on here. And elect new people!

95th Street Pharmacy is Opening on 3rd Avenue
Hello 95th Street Pharmacy!
This new pharmacy is on 95th Street and 3rd Avenue, yes across the street is Walgreens Pharmacy. The phone number on the sign is 347-497-5232.
You might be thinking, “Why would a pharmacy compete with Walgreens?” It won’t.
This pharmacy will be for all the people who loved Ridge Pharmacy and being able to talk with a pharmacist and get some personal help. People love small shops!
Hopefully, items won’t be locked down like they are at Walgreens.
Capital One Bank used to be in this location until they left in the Spring of 2019. This store front was the campaign headquarters of Justin Brannan when he ran for re-election.
We are glad to see this corner will be very vibrant (The Wicked Monk next door keeps this street looking beautiful with flags, decorations and painted windows!)

Bus Riders Sound Off for the Last Stop Deli Stop
The MTA is eliminating bus stops and making the distance between bus stops longer. (Bus Bunching)
The Last Stop Deli on 4th Avenue and 100th Street will no longer be the last stop for the bus.
Here’s the problem with that: residents like stopping there and bus drivers like stopping there to get a drink and a snack.
There’s a petition to stop the bus changes – here.
If you take the bus, there will be virtual meetings about the changes (See meeting list) and register for the meeting – here.
Community Board 10 will be advocating for service near the new senior senior center.

New Bay Ridge Street to Dump Cars
Bay Ridge residents weren’t happy when they saw their street, Fort Hamilton Parkway between 97th Street and Marine had become the new dumping ground for vehicles, especially the one below with no plates.
There is someone who isn’t afraid to park a car without plates because he knows it isn’t going to be towed.
This is what happens to communities where there is no leadership.

Justin Brannan Voted for Ebikes – Now They Over Ride in Parks And People Are Afraid
Anything actually going to be done about the motorcycles, e-bikes, dirt bikes and mopeds flying through #sunsetpark and #bushterminalpark ? These vehicles need to be impounded @NYCParks @NYCCouncil38 @BkCB7 @FriendsSunsetPk @queenoftheclick @brooklynpaper pic.twitter.com/ELUnjPyT7q

Councilman Justin Brannan voted in favor of the e-scooters in NYC in June 2020.
Since 2020, we have seen that some ebike users respect people and other drivers, some don’t. Brannan hasn’t passed any legislation to keep them off the sidewalk and out of our parks, even though many people have complained in our community.
