Last night your 70th Precinct Officers of steady sector Charlie were alerted that a vehicle was just stolen. Officers quickly responded. Within 30 minutes they were able to track the location of the vehicle & safely arrest the individual. Excellent Police Work!

@NYPD70Pct @InnaVernikov @KalmanYegerNYC @NYPDBklynSouth Meanwhile a woman gets robbed at gun point, a hit and run, and two men with guns are reported. But let’s make sure we tow a car. Bravo! I feel so much safer now.

Happy Mother’s Day to all celebrating!
