BE VIGILANT AGAINST THE UWS BASEMENT BURGLARS: “DON’T LET THE BAD GUYS WIN!”

December 23, 2011 | 5:28 PM - Updated on June 5, 2022 | 11:30 PM

Burglars recently struck at 2 buildings on West 74th Street, busting into the metal doors that lead to the basements of the buildings in the middle of the night. They were foiled by a light-sleeping neighbor who woke up and apparently spooked them off, according to a note posted on trees near the buildings this week. The NYPD hasn’t gotten back to us with details about the crime.

Check out the note below, sent in by dedicated Rag reader and very talented Upper West Side filmmaker Phil Vasquez. (Click on the picture to enlarge)

I am the person who wrote and posted that sign about the robberies. It is so amazing to see it in The Rag two days later. I love the Upper West side! Have a happy holiday and remember – be careful. Don’t let the bad guys win! 😉
