This disturbing but fortunately non-violent incident comes courtesy of a person we’ll call “B”. He writes:

Hey Miss Heather

Turns out I am the second victim in two days of a thief on a bike stealing iPhones right out of peoples hands!!!! I chased this guy down leonard, where he zipped across grand, and slowed down enough to get onto the sidewalk and ride down grand and disappeared when he went left onto lorimer
Now, the whole time I’m screaming stop him stop him, he stole my phone. everyone in front of the williamsburg country club and that bike shop next to it stood there and did NOTHING! when I finally collapsed from sprinting, a nice woman let me call from her cell.
Cops are eager to bust this guy. They drove me around looking and then the detectives too.  At the end of the day, it’s not about the hunk of plastic, it’s about getting jacked while walking down the street. Update to readers!!! Don’t text while you walk alone. STAY ALERT. Cops say this is happening too frequently. The thieves then sell the phones to the Domincan Republic.
*BIGGEST PART OF IT!* FINDMYIPHONE APP is garbage! Once they have your phone they go to settings and turn it off. It doesn’t ask for the password when you disable the function. ATTWS was no help and they sent me to apple. EVEN THE COPS WERE PUT ON HOLD!
whatever, still amped from the experience. Just a warning that it’s still shady out there.
Be careful out there folks!

Holiday Cheer: Tremont Bronx

Chris Arnade (who took the above photograph) writes:

The weather has been warm, work anything but jolly, so I was happy to find some holiday cheer in the Bronx. This plot of land, complete with a club house and chickens, is hemmed in by the surrounding apartment complexes. Its the tree fort for the block, with Pigeon guys on the roofs above and a classic bike club across the street.

Raoul, a bike nut, helped with the Xmas tree. My favorite decoration, the skeleton, was his contribution. I love Christmas, especially in New York, a city that gives everything a unique spin.
