Two Lubavitch men standing outside talking on Lefferts Avenue between New York and Nostrand Avenues Sunday evening were shocked when shots rang out a mere few feet from where they were standing.
At approximately 10:30 pm three black teens suddenly ran past them down the block. One had a gun and was shooting as he ran by.
One of the bullets hit the rear window of the car of a Lubavitcher man who was just pulling out of a parking spot, shattering the window and exiting through the car’s roof.
“The bullet flew right over the baby’s car seat,” the shaken driver told COLlive afterwards. “Thank G-d I was alone in the car.”
One of the bystanders called the police who responded quickly to the scene, and are searching for the three youths. Bullets were recovered from under a nearby car.
whats with the police? this is the millionth time there was an accident between lefferts and maple! there’s obviosly a gang or something near hear and the police should be on gaurd!
It’s just the window!
I had my four wheels “borrowed” from my new car…
And as the good Jewish mayor of this wondreful city would say while his armed guards stand near him, ”
it’s ok, just wear a bullet proof vest next time you go out.”
Officers called for backup from the Emergency Services Unit for evidence recovery, and they found the bullet lodged in the minivan roof. The officers did not have the appropriate tools to recover the slug, and turned to Shomrim for assistance. where shomrim member aaron hershkop had the tools to help. Thank you shomrim for your help. as always your there to help keep our community safe
I’m not surprized
FYI Shomrim was at the scene before the police and assisted the police in dislodging the bullet from the Lubavitchers car.
my dad was righte there
we need rabbi israel shemtov back to clean up the streets.

And Blumberg still says that crime has gone down in NY. I guess Crown Heights is no longer considered part of NY!
Let me understand you want unarmed shmendrics to chase down armed shvartses are you volentering to do that ?
