This report covers felony crimes that occurred only in Kensington’s two police sectors, G and K, from February 16, 2015 through March 16, 2015. Sector G includes Beverley Road to Avenue F, and 37th Street to Coney Island Avenue; Sector K covers Caton Avenue to Beverley Road and 37th Street to Coney Island Avenue. The entire 66th Precinct is parceled into 13 sectors, lettered A-J.
