‎​2 arrested for attacking teenager

Sunday – February 6, 2011 at approximately 9:30pm: A teenage boy was walking on Albany Avenue near Eastern Parkway when two female blacks threw a glass bottle at him. The bottle landed a mere few inches from him. Two passersby, shocked at what they just witnessed, approached the pair and asked them what they were doing. One of the Perpetrators pulled out what appeared to be a knife and threatened the witnesses telling them to stay out of it. The witnesses called the Shmira hot-line as well as 911 and proceeded to follow the perpetrators toward Troy Avenue.

Shmira members responded and flagged down a Police Officer who was on foot patrol on Troy Avenue and Eastern Parkway. The officer approached the perpetrators and when he began questioning them, they attempted to flee and physically resist. Shmira members on the scene assisted the officer in restraining the perpetrators and the officer then placed the perpetrators under arrest.

Turns out, the perpetrators were in possession of a comb with a sharp metal handle which looked like a knife.  They were charged with menacing, resisting arrest and Obstructing Governmental Administration amongst other charges.

In case of Emergency call 911 and Shmira 24 hours a day 7 days a week @718-221-0303
