NYC Sues Solar Panel Company

Radiant Solar went door to door and sold solar panels to homes owners in New York City. See News:
https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/new-york-city-radiant-solar-lawsuit-william-james-bushell
Their pitch to homeowners was basically: “Let me see your existing electric bill. If you install solar panels your electric bill will drop to _____.” They also said that government incentives will help pay for it.
Instead home owners were signed up for loans for $30,000 – $40,000. Some people didn’t realize they had taken out a loan until they got a letter from the lender. (Source: https://shorturl.at/nDq1d )
About 370 New York City homeowners were affected by these loans.
Some people who had the panels installed reported that:
- The panels were installed facing the wrong direction, so they didn’t produce enough power.
- They had roof damage/ leaks or a collapsed ceilings after installation
New York City filed a lawsuit against the company and its owner. The city is asking for: $18 million to repay homeowners.

April 9, 2026Why Was a Helicopter Flying Over the 70’s in Bay Ridge Today?

Ridgites were sharing photos of police cars in the area and helicopters over the 70’s in Bay Ridge this afternoon.
Someone even posted the flight path of the helicopter:

The Citizen App said that the police were chasing two guys on a dirt bike. I’ll update if I find anything that confirms this.
No politicians offered any explanation about what is going on because we don’t have any that are connected to the community.

April 9, 2026Were Shots Fired on 93rd Street in Bay Ridge?

Someone reported to the police that shots were fired on 93rd Street between 3rd and 4th Avenue in Bay Ridge this afternoon.
The address provided on the Citizen App 354 – 93rd Street is the apartment building down the block from the former Prince Hotel site.

The 68th Precinct police officers would be able to tell the community if shots were fired because we have ShotSpotter in our area. But we don’t have a community officer to share that information.
NYC Council representative Santosuosso may be on materity leave, but someone should be providing updates from her office.
Senator Gounardes was busy filming and posting another goofy video instead of updating the community. From the video:

At a recent Community Board 10 meeting, neighbors from 93rd Street asked for help because there are reoccurring problems on this block near the “transient hotel” (the term they used at the meeting).
93rd Street neighbors, when you see this reach out to me on Facebook or Insta.

April 9, 2026Little Girl Hit By a Car in Sunset Park

Last night around 12:10 am, Briela Aviles, a 3-year-old girl was outside with her mother on 50th Street between 5th and 6th Avenue in Sunset Park. They had just returned home from grocery shopping.

The little girl ran between two cars and into the street. Briela was hit by a car. She was brought to Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan and is in critical condition.

The 43-year-old driver remained on the scene. There was a woman and two children in the car with him. They all must be in shock as no one would expect a child to run out at that time. News here: https://shorturl.at/eepwu
Please pray that Briela Aviles will be alright. I’m praying for the driver as well.
