April 3, 2026Police Release SUPER BLURRY Suspect’s Picture From 3/21 Robbery on 86th Street in Bay Ridge

Why are the police releasing a low quality image like the one above. This is on this social media post: https://shorturl.at/bDgPQ
No one is going to be able to identify the thief because it’s too unclear. Where is all of our tax money going to?
Our area is not being maintained if camera images look like that. Even $40 cameras produce better images.
On March 21st at 7:16 pm, a 45-year-old father with a stroller was approached by a thief outside of PC Richards at 576 – 86th Street.
They had a verbal dispute. Then the thief punched the head in the head and stole his phone.

April 2, 2026Wheels Taken on 10th Avenue and 85th Street

Imagine haven’t to come out to your vehicle looking like this on Easter weekend? This happened on 85th Street and 10th Avenue.
We don’t need any more speed cameras, we need security cameras that the community can use and alert the police. A few cameras and some signs about the new security will deter some thieves.
There are a lot of people in Dyker Heights who would be interested in keeping an eye on their neighborhood. (When men went down a manhole, a Dyker Heights neighbor watched the manhole on her camera for hours!)
