Halloween is here and after some preparation, police and local plans are being rolled into action. Even the MTA has an emergency action plan for the B31. Although the MTA says suspensions “will be likely” I hope we can prove them wrong. The property owners association from their announcement, has organized a good amount of people for their roving patrols, and the 61 and 63 precincts will have a presence in the area.
Although I have no official knowledge of how the 61st, 63 and Parks will deal with Halloween in Gerrtisen Beach, I’m going to guess there will be a presence of marked and unmarked cars, and plain clothes officers. The 61 commanding officer will be in the area as well. If you are a parent, I would make sure you keep an eye on them because summonses and arrests sound likely.
Remember all NYC Parks close at dusk and anyone committing a crime will be arrested (no matter how old).
Update: 1:00pm (It’s about time we retook the streets)








I wouldn’t wann be riding that cop golf cart later.

Mta made no announcements what so ever of the B31 officially not running. It is absolutely ridiculous that they would shut down the system, just because parents can’t control their kids!

I think this was one of the most pleasant Halloweens I seen in years. Hundreds of kids and parents trick or treating without being pelted with eggs, shaving cream or worse. If it was the police going around the courts or sitting on the avenue they deserve our thanks. Well done.. let’s keep our streets safe.
