Community Board 10 and The 68th Precinct Discussed the Murder at Catch 22

Community Board 10 had a Police and Public Safety Committee Meeting this week. Usually this committee only talks about liquor licenses in Bay Ridge, but this month they had three police officers from the 68th Precinct present because of the murder and stabbing last week. Lieutenant Christopher Vincent and two Community Affairs officers answered questions.
Community Board 10 mentioned that Catch 22 had difficulty before this incident. Community Board 10 met with the owner of Catch 22 in June 2023. Last year, Community Board 10 requested that Catch 22 close the bar earlier because there were numerous complaints about noise. The SLA and NY allows bars to stay open until 4:00 am.
CB 10 asked if the stabbing happened in the bar or outside the bar. Lieutenant Vincent said that Daryl Dawkins was stabbed inside the bar.
The man who stabbed Dawkins is NOZT an employee of Catch 22 (which was written on Facebook).
The suspect was inside the bar at some point during the evening. On social media, someone said the killer was not a patron at Catch 22. The Lieutenant also said the investigation was still going on.
No one has been arrested for the murder yet.
