CRIME-FOCUSED MEETING CALLED FOR THE 72ND PRECINCT COMMUNITY COUNCIL

Special Meeting of the 72nd Precinct Community Council
Tuesday, November 26th, 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
  
The special meeting of the 72nd Precinct Community Council that Windsor Terrace residents were promised has been scheduled for next week.

At last week's meeting, the commanding officer was caught unaware of a number of the crimes residents reported at the meeting. Some of the crimes they reported were

  • group assaults,
  • groups of people armed with guns and/or knives,
  • verbal threats of physical violence,
  • house break-ins,
  • car break-ins,
  • people climbing on top of garages to get access to private backyards,
  • young teenagers smoking pot in the presence of younger children in parks,
  • crimes by the Fort Hamilton Parkway/E. 5th Street F and G subway station due to the absence of a clerk inside and low lighting outside, and
  • package theft.


Quite a few took place in the southwestern portion of Windsor Terrace--the part that's closer to Kensington and is west of the Prospect Expressway.

Deputy Inspector Emmanuel Gonzalez committed to following up on those matters and reporting back to the community at a specially-called meeting, rather than waiting until the Community Council's regularly-scheduled monthly meeting in December.

This follow-up meeting of the 72nd Precinct Community Council will be held on Tuesday, November 26th, at 7:30 p.m.

Location
Marian Center
Immaculate Heart of Mary Rectory
2805 Fort Hamilton Parkway
between E. 4th and E. 5th streets
Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn
