a sitting duck [business] for........hooded thugs that have this mindset, mentality. it's the truth....

"Police are looking for 10 teenagers wanted for stealing $12,000 worth of jackets from a clothing store in Brighton Beach, and assaulting two people in an incident last month.
According to authorities, on Sunday, Oct. 20 at around 5 p.m., the teens went into the store near Coney Island Avenue and Ocean View Avenue, grabbed 12 jackets from hangers and ran out with them, striking two of the store’s employees and pushing them to the ground as they fled. Police say the group headed eastbound on Brighton 10th Street. Police describe the suspects as being in their late teens."

….”The group walked into the shop at about 5 p.m., pulled a dozen jackets from hangers, and then took off without paying, police said. As they were fleeing the store, the thieves hit two employees and shoved one employee to the ground, police said. Thankfully, no one was hurt, the NYPD said. The group was seen fleeing eastward on Brighton 10th Street, police said. The 12 stolen jackets have a price tag of about $1,000 each, cops said…”



Where do they LEARN TO ACT LIKE THIS – WHERE? Who are all their parents ?? they’re teenage predators heading towards much much worse crimes as their diseased brains develop and as they get older and become “men/women.” OMG….

I live in 10029. East Harlem has one of if not the highest crime rates in NYC (definitely Manhattan).

And now that Mayor Debullsh*t and the commies in the NYC counsel have caved to the mobs and defunded the NYPD, crime is skyrocketing.

There’s that and plus East Harlem doesn’t have the nice waterfront park and wealthy institutions (Columbia and the like). Convenience and price might ultimately bring massive changes, and the second avenue subway opening there would probably bring about pretty massive changes within a decade of opening.

I forgot poorly maintained housing stock too
It's been a low class neighborhood for at least 60 years.
