Wheels Stolen on 10th Avenue & 82nd Street
Last Tuesday, the wheels were stolen off this vehicle on 10th Avenue & 82nd Street in Dyker Heights. It was left on milk crates.
The SUV was placed on jacks to avoid further damage as the owner awaits a wheel delivery.
This is awful. We feel terrible for the owner, who had to come out to this and spend thousands to get new tires.

Man Followed Woman Down the Driveway on 99th Street & 4th Avenue
Last night at 11:54 pm, a neighbor was putting their garbage outside on 99th Street and 4th Avenue (same block as Campania Restaurant).
She saw this guy across the street talking to himself, so as soon as she dropped the garage, she ran back home and closed the door shut quickly.
As she ran, this guy followed her and hung around for a minute seemingly looking for an entry before he ran away.
Another Ridgite from the area shared that the 68th Precinct came and picked up the man.
