Can we please have a statement from our elected officials regarding the sharp uptick of crime in our community
did they catch the shooter?
To #7, What exactly will a statement do for you?
Straight outa da hood
Gun control is killing it out there.
I think the Jewish community needs to outright buy those apartments. Demolish them. Make the mansion homes they usually make. Have everyone move out. Problem solved less crimes in Lakewood.
yea there will be less violence & more accidents!
Lakewoodwoman you have a good point! Unfortunately it wouldn’t solve the crime problem in lkwd bec there are other places around town that these criminals live at besides for the mlk apartments. Are we safe anywhere these days?
What a racist and hateful comment from “Lakewoodwoman”.
The weapons Dr Robert bought the police are used by the Special Response Team.
Can we please have a statement from our elected officials regarding the sharp uptick of crime in our community
Ridiculous. ..any updates on this story?
Right and Obama thinks his “new” gun ordered would stop these types of gun crime. The man living in a different plant.
The way to reduce (I didn’t say stop) gun crime is to make much stricter sentences.
Why is a racist statement always the one of the answers? Guess we are still not past that in Lakewood
sounds like I moved from Brooklyn to another Brooklyn.
this mess is crazy because this is where my mom stay. she is over on john st and we heard the shots fired. its crazy… so many babies and innocent families there… just crazy need to get ridof the guns and make it harder to purchase them. but then they always know a family member or someone whose selling them on the street.
There are several racial comments that shows that humanity has a long, long way to go. Really, demolish and build mansions? How about building modest homes for the working poor and stop housing the unemployed those taken care by the state?
What’s up with the military style rifle carried by the police officer??
if only the victim had a gun
