We are fortunate to have such a safe neighborhood that something like this becomes material for an article. I appreciate the NYPD taking good care of us.
So there was a police report and STILL nobody will release a description of the perpetrator.
Everyone in power hates us.
Another useless human on earth. I hope they catch him and serve life in prison.
