Another Rape in Bay Ridge – 18 for This Year
On December 18th another woman was raped in our community – 87th Street and 4th Avenue in Bay Ridge.
This is the 18th rape in the 68th Precinct this year.
These are crimes which no police officer or politician is talking about because they think you don’t know. Justin Brannan has been silent for years. Kayla Santosuosso thinks this is the way politicians should be.
