Gowanus Lounge reports that there’s a a community meeting tonight at the 78th Precinct about a rise in crime in Park Slope. Here’s the info from GL this morning:
There’s a community meeting tonight at the 78th Precinct at Bergen and Flatbush) and that there have been about 12 break ins in a ten-block radius in the last several months.
Dear Gersh:
I regularly read the crime blotter in the Brooklyn Paper, and just wanted to let you know what a great service it is to the community. However, it would be nice if you would dispense with the snarky headlines. Crime and violence in our community is no laughing matter.
Sincerely,
A Park Slope Resident
Would be nice if you’d plug the weekly crime blotter in The Brooklyn Paper, where your readers (and mine) know all about the rise in break-ins. Our weekly blotter also has details unobtainable anywhere else, such as the times and locations of all area burglaries. Get it all at http://www.brooklynpaper.com/sections/news/crime.
Thanks!
