Major crimes across the city show a 0.3% uptick from the same time last year, NYPD data show.
Staten Island isn’t the “forgotten borough” when it comes to crime.
Major crime in the borough’s Mid-Island 122nd Precinct is up 54%, while the North Shore’s 120th Precinct reports a 34% increase, the statistics show. “Everything is isolated [out here] and businesses can be targeted,” said Pablo Junior, an employee at John’s Famous Deli on Innis Street, near Port Richmond High School. Junior added he feels safe because the 121 Precinct is nearby and “we have a good relationship with the police.” He also believes most of the robberies “involved smoke shops.”
McMahon earlier this month met with leaders of the business community to discuss the rise in violent robberies and how to deal with recidivism. The DA also held a press conference this week to “denounce violence” and “demand school safety” in the wake of shots fired on the grounds of PS 78 in Stapleton on Monday.
