Shomrim Member Helps Catch Suspect Stealing License Plates in Boro Park

By Y.M. Lowy

A quick-thinking Shomrim member on patrol last night spotted a man acting suspiciously near parked vehicles in Boro Park. Watching closely, the volunteer saw the man removing a license plate from one of the cars and immediately called for backup.

Other Shomrim members arrived and kept an eye on the suspect as he continued removing additional license plates. The NYPD was notified and arrived on the scene, ultimately arresting the man near 12th Avenue and 46th Street.

Thanks to the vigilance of local Shomrim volunteers, further thefts were prevented and the suspect was taken into police custody.
