In a swift and coordinated effort, two suspects with extensive criminal histories were arrested early Monday morning at 14th Avenue and 65th Street In Boro Park. The arrests, made around 4:00 AM, were carried out by the NYPD with crucial assistance from Boro Park Shomrim volunteers.
The NYPD and Shomrim recovered stolen mail, including checks, as well as glue traps used by the suspects to fish mail out of boxes. Further investigation uncovered that one of the suspects had three open warrants and a staggering 30 prior felony arrests. Law enforcement officials are continuing their investigation into the extent of the mail theft operation.
Residents are urged to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities.

nice, that’s 1 down…
I’m using this opportunity to warn people that check fraud has become a serious issue. This year my husband wrote a big check and mailed it out… following week miraculously my husband noticed that the check had deposited with the same amount but with a new name written . He immediately called the bank and filed a report and BH it was still transferring and the person had not withdrawn it yet. The bank eventually refunded us the money. Friends told me they have not gotten money back once the money is withdrawn. Moral: do not mail checks unless you do it with some kind of certification or tracking.
