I blame the City of New York directly for this and they should be held liable and accountable. How should we sue them?

Good afternoon

The 104 Precinct would like to update you on an incident that took place within our confines.

Yesterday, April 13, 2026, at approximately 9:15 pm, Officers responded to reports of a fire in the vicinity of 61st Street and Flushing Avenue. While on scene, numerous other calls came in for fire and damage to three storefronts along the Grand Avenue corridor between 64th Street and Queens Midtown Expressway.

The perpetrator was identified and arrested on scene.

As always, please reach out if there are any questions or concerns.

Best,

Probably out already with free tickets to the mets game.

Anyone know what stores were damaged?

That’s it? No other info

THERES A DENTIST , EYE PLACE AND KEY FOOD

Heard the perp was a woman.

And will she be released tomorrow to set more fires?

Just so screwed up. Never thought I would have to say it but " It's time to get out of NY" A Big TY to the men and women of the NYPD.

A lot of manpower dedicated to babysitting druggies at this place. grime-square.com/2026/04/11/knockdown-center-basement-club-police-arrests/

Was Knockdown Center implicated in the overdose? If not, what is the point of the original post?

The news( Ch4?) said intro'd the piece with it being about the "first city-owned food store in NYC", but then I didn't hear anything actually said about it. Did I miss it?

A few more deaths, then maybe something will be done

They will never be bothered by the nypd they donate alot of money to sponser events throughout queens during the summer they even sponsored national night out against crime

Wish he would stay out of Maspeth

Make him stay out of Maspeth by fighting him! We have to bring him down!
