Chaverim of Rockland has informed YWN that starting tonight, Chaverim will have four vehicles patrolling the streets on Shabbos and Yom Tov.
With the growth of the community, Chaverim of Rockland decided to launch the patrol division to operate on Shabbos and Yom Tov across the greater Monsey area.
The new patrols will provide assistance for any urgent situations that may arise during Shabbos and Yom Tov.
Over the past few weeks, Monsey has seen a rise in crime on Friday nights. As YWN recently reported, as many as 25 vehicles were broken into on Friday nights.
Thankfully, thanks to Chaveirim and the police department, arrests were made.

How does it work?
Are yidden driving? It’s only preventative. I assume non-jews are in the cars?
Will the drivers be Yidden?!
Isn’t this an issue for Shomrim, not Chaverim?
It’s not Jews who are driving.
Once again a major important chunk is missing from a story.
zalman: as far as i know, monsey does not have a shomrim.
silentmoishe: care to explain?
I believe Monsey doesn’t have Shomrim, Chaveirim does double duty.
There’s no shomrim in monsey chaveirem does their job
YWN worded this article in such a manner that the reader can only conclude that chilul Shabbos is imminent.
