- From the Gothamist Newsmap: A serious assault on Essex Street in Manhattan, police activity on the Verrazano Bridge, and a stabbing at Cross Bay Blvd & 165 Ave in Queens.
- All this talk of term limits means the Campaign Finance Board needs to look into regulatory issues.
- Queens residents had a "Walk Against Rape" to raise awareness about the growing number of sexual attacks in southeastern Queens.
- Neighbors are desperate to "get rid of" hotspot The Beatrice Inn--especially now that the State Liquor Authority renewed its liquor license.
- Robbers stole $7,000 worth of candy from sweets emporium Dylan's Candy Bar. When asked who would do such a thing, the manager said, "Trick-or-treaters?"
- Organizers tried to break the world record for the biggest tow truck party at Floyd Bennett Field over the weekend.
- A bank and a frozen yogurt joint: Just what a glassy condo needs on the ground floor.

The Beatrice Inn and Graydon Carter's place The Waverly Inn have both trashed up the neighborhood quite a bit, thanks.
Every corner for two blocks either side of these places is loused up with thug chauffer/body guard creeps who leave their engines running for three hours at a crack so the celebrity shite brains that are inside can be whisked away in air-conditioned or heated comfort. Did I mention the jerkoff paparazzi forcing locals into the street by taking up the entire sidewalk?
Thank you, Graydon and Paul Sevigny.
The robbers didn't steal $7000 worth of CANDY, they stole $7000 worth of dollars.
$7000 dollars.
The submarine is spouting wood. It got a boner.
Who keeps that kind of money in a cash register overnight? Something is very wrong here. Insurance companies do routine surveys of their clients procedures asking about how cash is handled, limits are set as to how much has to be deposited or taken off the premises, how is it accounted for etc. They tell you how it should be handled or you don't get the policy. Either the management is skimming or employees spotted the weakness and went for it.
