The Q at Parkside

(for those for whom the Parkside Q is their hometrain)

News and Nonsense from the Brooklyn neighborhood of Lefferts and environs, or more specifically a neighborhood once known as Melrose Park. Sometimes called Lefferts Gardens. Or Prospect-Lefferts Gardens. Or PLG. Or North Flatbush. Or Caledonia (west of Ocean). Or West Pigtown. Across From Park Slope. Under Crown Heights. Near Drummer's Grove. The Side of the Park With the McDonalds. Jackie Robinson Town. Home of Lefferts Manor. West Wingate. Near Kings County Hospital. Or if you're coming from the airport in taxi, maybe just Flatbush is best.

Crime Time

Local crime-spotting duo Martinos & Fabri have once again compiled a list of Lefferts-specific crimes for the past couple months. Some of you will recall the rash of home burglaries in late July...you'll see the spike in the blotter, and the 71st's arrests noted. Thx are due to the community for calling it in and remaining vigilant and cooperative.

As Detective Jackie Gleason would say, and awaaaaayyyyy we go...

With respect to the robberies, I can't help but wonder about the context. Looking up some of these locations, numbers of these appear to be apartment buildings. So I wonder, did the robberies happen on the street, or in the buildings themselves? If they happened in the buildings, were the perpetrators residents casing the building? Outsiders who gained access? Did they accost residents in the stairwell areas, in the elevators or lobbies?
