Several Attempted Crimes, Plus 70th Precinct Meeting Reminder

Several Attempted Crimes, Plus 70th Precinct Meeting Reminder

Here’s the most recent CompStat report from the 70th Precinct, which covers the week of 6/11-6/17/12, and below are some reports from neighbors about recent attempted crimes:

A thief tried to steal a woman’s iPhone in the early evening of Friday, June 22 on East 17th between Dorchester and Cortelyou, but got away without it.

• A neighbor on Westminster Road between Glenwood and Avenue H saw a group of people arguing, and saw one man threaten the other with a gun, on the afternoon of Friday, June 8.

• Thieves appeared to have tried to break into two homes off of Rugby Road (near DeKoven and Glenwood) last week by slicing through window screens. No entry was noticed in either case, and police are investigating.

These incidents have been added to the map. If you’ve been the victim of the crime, after you’ve reported it to the police, please send us an email at ditmasparkcorner@gmail.com or fill out the form on the map page with the details, including date, approximate time, and what happened, and we’ll add it.

REMINDER: The 70th Precinct Community Council meeting is tonight, Wednesday, June 27 at 7:30pm at 157 Lawrence Avenue. It’s your last chance this summer to get some face-time with your local officers–there are no meetings in July and August. So if you’ve got a public safety issue you’d like to discuss, please attend this meeting.
