Not a very good week in the 61st Precinct. Felony Assault and Burlary are both up, though there has been a decline in Grand Larceny Auto. Maybe the crooks got tired of breaking into cars and have moved up to homes?
We heard that at least three break-ins occurred on and around East 14th Street and Avenue Z recently. Where I live, we’ve installed a few extra security measures. And don’t forget the tips to protect your home that we gave you two weeks ago.
How about you? Done anything recently to safeguard your home against burglars?

Police and Coast Guard vessels converged on a cruise boat before a late night party on Friday, July 9. The boat was a Stamford, Connecticut, vessel named Annabel Lee, stationed that night on Pier 1, but never before seen in Sheepshead Bay.
NYPD officials on the scene declined to comment, and the party eventually went forward. But we’ve heard that they were likely cited for liquor license violations.
In the above video, you can see party promoters carrying liquor onto the ship just before an NYPD vessel came alongside it. The NYPD boat docked at Pier 2, where a number of officers unloaded and met on the sidewalk. They then entered the Annabel Lee just minutes after 11:00 p.m. and stayed on board for approximately an hour. Plainclothes detectives came on board at around 11:30, and a Coast Guard vessel stayed next to the cruise boat the entire time.

Burglary increased again this week, and if the pattern holds for just a few more weeks then there will be a year-over-year increase. There continues to be no success in driving down the numbers of Grand Larceny Auto, which is getting closer to a 20 percent increase for the year.

UPDATE [10:21 p.m.]: By the time we got to Avenue Y there were no police present. We then got a call from another reader saying he saw heavy police activity at Ocean Avenue and Avenue T. He said he overheard an officer say, “He didn’t throw the gun in the bushes.” It seems like the two incidents could be related, especially if someone was making their way by car down Ocean Avenue, and then tried to get rid of a weapon before being caught by police. We’ll see what we can find out.
We just got a tip that “something major is going down” on Ocean Avenue and Avenue Y. The tipster said about eight police cars were on the scene and all he heard was “he had a gun in his hand.” We’re going to see what we can find out. Anyone with information, please send it to us.
