Hey Heather,

Last night at around 4:30 am my girlfriend and I heard someone run screaming down the street. I looked out my bathroom window in time to hear a girl talking to the cops up by Kim’s. She was telling them that a man wearing a tie-dye shirt and jeans broke into her apt at 210 Powers Street (by Humboldt) and had put a bunch of her stuff out on the street when she came home and caught him. She chased him down Powers I guess and onto Graham but lost him there. Do you know anything more about this/whether they caught the guy? Hoping you can also alert the rest of upper Graham Avenue so they can stay vigilant.
Wow, that’s some scary stuff! I do not know any more details about this incident (but I am asking around). If anyone reading this knows more about what happened this morning on Powers Street please share via comments or email at: missheather (at) thatgreenpointblog (dot) com. Thanks— and like Samantha says: be vigilant folks!

Today as I was knocking I spied a wheat paste mural being erected to commemorate 9/11 on North 5th Street. Those of you who have the opportunity really should check it out.
