QUICKLINKS: A Couple Of Items From The New York Daily News

A take on the recent “crime wave” in Greenpoint. Interesting quote/teaser:
“We always have these waves (of crime),” said Community Affairs Officer Steve Truglio of the 94th Precinct.

Truglio declined to discuss if the precinct is altering its tactics to combat the crime increase. But he did say criminals are attracted to the neighborhood for the same reason as Willie Sutton robbed banks — that’s where the money is.
A run-down of the pistol-whipping which came to pass this weekend.
