Hi All,
I just got off the phone with Captain Mastronardi, 104th Precinct. He told me over the past several months there have been multiple burglaries that appear to fall within the same "crime pattern". The burglaries are occurring mostly in northern and central Maspeth, Woodside in the vicinity of Calamus Avenue and Middle Village adjacent to Maspeth. Those of you who live outside this area still need to be careful! Here is some information: - The burglaries are occurring during the hours people are not home - 8:00 am to about 6:30 pm. This does not mean a burglary cannot happen outside this time frame! - Many, but not all, victims are Asian. - Entry is oftentimes made through the rear. The burglar made entry into one home through the balcony and another was made via a fire escape. Make sure you secure your house before you go out. Be aware of your surroundings!! Is someone watching you leave each day at the same time? Don't leave large amounts of cash in your house. If you see one or more suspicious persons walking around or sitting in a car and looking at houses, etc. call 911 and tell the Operator we have a burglary pattern in our area and the 104th Precinct asked folks to call. If you see a suspicious vehicle, make a note of the make/model/license plate number. *Please be alert and pass this information along to your neighbors!!* We will most likely hear more about this at our meeting on Monday. Roe Daraio, President COMET Civic Association www.cometcivic.com Good afternoon all, I regret to inform you that yesterday at approximately 2:30 pm a male, black age 41 years old was shot multiple times in the parking lot of 96-02 57th Ave, the victim who sustained non life threatening injuries was transported to Elmhurst Hospital. During a canvass of the area the suspect a male, black, age 23 years old was observed by police officers and was placed under arrest. Additionally a firearm believed to be used in the crime was also recovered from the scene. If you have further information please feel free to email me. Thank you very much for your time and I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving day.

I just heard from Captain Mastronardi, 104th Precinct, who wants folks to know we had another burglary this afternoon via a fire escape. He mentioned at our meeting this past Monday that folks who have fire escapes should put wood in the window so it can't be pushed up and breaking the lock. Folks who have balconies should consider doing the same thing in the event someone manages to get up to the second floor. I was discussing crime incidents in our area with PO Diaz, 108th Precinct. The only burglary was that of a truck. However, we have quite a few "car crimes". Three stolen cars - a BMW stolen from QB/67th Street; a Bentley stolen from 50th Avenue/70th Street; and an Acura stolen from 50th Avenue/73rd Place. Three Grand Larcenies from vehicles - unlocked Toyota side door; a laptop stolen from the trunk of a vehicle on 61st/Laurel Hill Boulevard; and a Ford Explorer was broken into on Garfield/70th Street. Please don't leave anything in your vehicle and please secure your windows especially if you have a fire escape. Roe Daraio, President COMET Civic Association www.cometcivic.com COMET Meeting
