Looks like someone is pressing the dairy and frozen food sections into service as a buffet. Again.

I have received word from an eyewitness (who sent me the above photo) that a fellow is turning himself in has been apprehended regarding the rape which recently came to pass in front of 198 Java Street. This was confirmed by a very brave person instrumental in making this happen. Presently they are awaiting the NYPD’s SVU to arrive. Does this mean the fellow is guilty? Absolutely not. This remains to be determined. However, this does demonstrate that the NYPD Hate Crimes Unit is taking this downright disgusting crime very seriously.

From The New York Shitty Inbox: Intrigue On The Deli Front?
This photo was sent to me by a reader we’ll call “T”. There has been a lot of speculation that this is an expansion of the now former “God Bless Deli”at 818 Manhattan Avenue. Makes sense— but as we all know that is not how Greenpoint rolls. I queried the fellows who operate the latter establishment (which is now the USA Deli). They assured me this was not their endeavor and they were none too happy about it. So now we have— or will soon have— a God Bless Deli 2 sans a #1. Oy.

From The New York Shitty Inbox: A Word From The 94th
Filed under: 11222, Criminal Activity, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic
I have been asked what happened on Java Street last weekend by a concerned neighbor. Sadly, it appears to be much worse than I had been initially led to believe. Per the 94th Precinct:
The New York City Police Department is asking the public’s assistance identifying the suspect wanted for rape within the confines of the 94 Precinct. Details are as follows:
On Sunday, June 16, 2013 at 0001 hours the victim, a F/W/26, was walking in the vicinity of 198 Java Street when she was approached by the suspect who attempted to strike up a conversation with her. The suspect, armed with a knife, then raped the victim.
The suspect is a male white, or hispanic, 25-35 years old, 5’9″ tall with a medium build and dark hair. He was wearing a black tee short with an unknown design on the front, blue jeans and was carrying a knapsack.
Anyone with information in regards to this rape is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS.
The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers Website at WWW.NYPDCRIMESTOPPERS.COM or texting their tips to 274637(CRIMES) then enter TIP577.
Those who care to do so can view the surveillance footage by clicking here. Be careful out there, folks!
