A man in Chicago allegedly tried to rob a gas station Tuesday and was involved in a stabbing in an area that has suffered an increase in crime.

But the moment another man at the scene tried to stop him, the suspect reportedly hit and stabbed the individual.

Recent law enforcement data showed that crime in Chicago has increased with citizens experiencing more burglaries, thefts, and stolen car incidents.

As Fox 32 reported on March 1:

At least 88 people have been murdered in Chicago this year, up from 85 at the same time last year. Aggravated batteries are up 15%, robberies up 10% and sexual assaults up 9%, according to the data released Tuesday.

Property crimes registered even sharper increases: Thefts up 61%, burglaries 33% and motor vehicle thefts 45%. The last category does not include carjackings, which the department defines as vehicles taken by force.

On Sunday, seven men were hurt at a pizza shop in Chicago when someone inside a car opened fire, according to Breitbart News.

“The seven injuries were part of a weekend in which 13 people were shot and wounded in Lori Lightfoot’s Chicago, and one person was shot and killed,” the article said.

In December, Chicago Alderman Raymond Lopez (D) accused Lightfoot of placing officers “in danger” amid the crime surge:

Mayor Lightfoot said last week that our safety is her number one priority, but her policies that not only impact my safety, but the safety of our brave men and women who are on the front line of law enforcement, have been contradictory to those words. She has left many of our police districts without officers, forced many of them that have a beat assigned to them to go to their job without a partner, and often times puts their lives in danger.

A man and his son were beaten by dirt bikers in Harlem on Tuesday, and the gang also allegedly took a cellphone, wallet, and cash.

The group apparently attacked the 64-year-old and his 36-year-old son, forcing them to exit their vehicle near the intersection of St. Nicholas Terrace and West 127th Street, ABC 7 reported Wednesday.

In a social media post, NYPD Crime Stoppers shared surveillance footage of the incident showing four dirt bikers surrounding the dark-colored vehicle.

Moments later, two suspects, one wearing a dark-colored coat and another in a bright blue shirt appeared to pull the driver out of the vehicle and throw him on the ground.

The person in the black coat proceeded to kick the individual and later, the man in blue appeared to punch him as he sat on the pavement.

WARNING – GRAPHIC VIDEO:

Eventually, several others surrounded the victim and kicked him while another man, wearing a black vest, punched him before someone else apparently rammed his dirt bike into the man, according to the footage.

“Police say it happened after one of the bikers ran a red light and collided with the car,” the ABC report noted, adding the suspects allegedly took several items.

The outlet reported the victims were listed in stable condition following the incident.

Crime in New York City rose in January by approximately 40 percent, according to a Fox 5 report from early February:

According to the latest figures released by the NYPD, every major crime category saw an increase in January 2022 except for murder.

Shootings across the city jumped by 31.6 percent, from 76 to 100, while robberies increased by 33.1 percent and grand larceny increased by a shocking 58.1 percent. Rapes also increased to 128, from 101 last year, a 26.7 percent increase.

Meanwhile, Mayor Eric Adams (D) said last month the New York City Police Department may receive less or the same amount of funding per the city’s 2022 budget.

“The budget is basically going to be flat,” he explained. “There may be a slight decrease in the next few months, but it’s basically going to remain flat,” he continued, adding the top concern for citizens was public safety.

New York City Police say a suspect slashed a 27-year-old man in the face Tuesday night while he was waiting for a train at a Manhattan subway station.

Police said the unprovoked stabbing occurred at about 6:30 p.m.while the 27-year-old waited for a train at the West 168th Street and Broadway station in Washington Heights, PIX 11 reported. The victim sustained a minor wound and was treated at Harlem Hospital, the New York Daily News noted. He informed officers that he was not familiar with the assailant.

The suspect fled the scene and remains on the loose.

“He is described as light-skinned, in his 30s, about 5-foot-6 and 120 pounds and was wearing blue jacket and gray sweatpants,” according to the Daily News.

The incident comes as subway crimes have been making headlines in New York City. On March 9, 48-year-old Christian Jeffers, a biological male who identifies as a woman, was arrested for allegedly bashing an Asian man in the head with a hammer at the 14th Street station a day earlier, Breitbart News reported. Jeffers was charged with assault, aggravated harassment, and menacing – all as hate crimes – and criminal possession of a weapon.

Jeffers’s alleged attack followed another alleged brutal hammer attack at the Queens Plaza Subway station on February 24. William Blount, a 57-year-old homeless man, allegedly repeatedly bashed New York City health Department scientist Nina Rothschild, 57, fracturing her skull, Breitbart News reported. He also allegedly snatched her purse. Blount is charged with attempted murder, assault, and robbery.

Crime rates have skyrocketed under Democratic Mayor Eric Adams’s watch. From the time Adams succeeded former Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) on January 1 through March 13, overall crime has seen a 45.4 percent jump compared to the same period in 2021, the NYPD’s crime statistics show.

During the same time period, transit crimes have risen 80.3 percent, hate crimes are up 113.7 percent, robberies have registered a 43.5 percent increase, and rape is up 34.8 percent compared to last year.

Suspect in Fatal Attacks on Homeless in D.C., NYC Named: ‘We Got Our Man’

The intense manhunt to find the man suspected of shooting five homeless men, two fatally, has been identified.

“I am here to announce that we got our man,” Washington D.C. Metro Police Department Chief Robert Contee said during a press conference on Tuesday. “At approximately 2:30 a.m., 30-year-old Gerald Brevard of Southeast D.C. was taken into custody.”

The press conference came just hours after the D.C. police announced on social media that they had arrested a man believed to have shot five homeless men in D.C. and New York City.

Newsweek reported on the development:

During the press conference on Tuesday, Contee said that Brevard had a previous criminal history, with charges in Washington D.C. in 2016 and 2018. Following the most recent arrest on Tuesday, Brevard was charged with first-degree murder, assault with a dangerous weapon and assault with intent to kill.

According to the Associated Press, in 2018, Brevard was arrested in D.C. and pleaded guilty to attempted assault with a deadly weapon. Court records obtained by the AP showed that Brevard was sent to a psychiatric hospital after he was found to be mentally unstable. In 2019, he was deemed fit to stand trial and pleaded guilty to the charges, resulting in a year in prison.

“You’re shocked that someone can commit such a jarring act against a defenseless person,” NYPD Chief of Detectives James Essig said after the arrest in Daily News report. “Just going up and shooting somebody sleeping, defenseless on the sidewalk … (he) has some serious issues.”

The Daily News reported on the man’s father:

The suspect’s father, also named Gerald, issued a statement describing his namesake son as “a good person” who suffers from untreated mental illness.

“I cannot speak to the details of the case,” he told the Daily News in a text message. ‘I can only speak to the issue of the failure of the judicial system identifying that my son suffers from mental illness, but not treating him … The system has failed regarding the treatment of so many, including my son.”

A man in Yonkers was arrested after the alleged beating of a 67-year-old woman who is recovering in the hospital.

The incident happened Friday evening, and police discovered the victim lying in the lobby of her building while the suspect, whom officials identified as Tammel Esco, waited outside, NBC New York reported Monday.

In a social media post, the Yonkers Police Department said the victim suffered severe facial injuries and was transported to a trauma center, adding the suspect was taken into custody without incident.

The department’s post continued:

Investigation yielded that the victim, a 67-year-old resident of the City of Yonkers, was returning home and saw the suspect in front of the building. As she walked past him, he called her an “Asian bitch;” the victim is of Asian descent. Ignoring his comment, the victim entered the vestibule of the building and was attempting to open the second door to enter the lobby when, without warning, the suspect approached from behind and punched her in the head, knocking her to the floor; he then stood over her and proceeded to punch her in the head and face more than 125 times with alternating fist strikes before foot-stomping her seven times and spitting on her.

WARNING – GRAPHIC VIDEO:

The woman suffered contusions, lacerations, bone fractures, and bleeding on her brain; however, she was listed in stable condition, according to police.

Meanwhile, a majority of voters believe “crime is getting worse in America,” with 83 percent saying it will be one of the main issues during the midterm elections, a Rasmussen Reports poll from last month found.

“Broken down by political affiliation, 79 percent of Republicans, nearly half of Democrats (48 percent), and 70 percent of unaffiliated voters think violent crime is on the rise,” according to Breitbart News.

Esco was charged on one count of attempted murder as a hate crime and one count of assault as a hate crime.

“ESCO was arraigned in Yonkers Criminal Court on March 12th and remanded into the custody of the Westchester County Jail; his next court date is scheduled for March 25th,” police said.

New York City police are searching for a suspect they say choked a 27-year-old woman unconscious and raped her Friday afternoon in the Bronx.

Police said the attack occurred inside a residential building near West 190th Street and Davidson Avenue at approximately 3:30 p.m., the New York City Police Department (NYPD) said Saturday.

The unidentified assailant “placed the 27-year-old female victim in a chokehold until she lost consciousness & raped her,” police said.

Chilling footage of the attack, shared by NYPD’s Crime Stoppers, appears to show the woman attempting to pass the suspect near a stairwell in the building’s hallway. When she turns her back to him, he apparently swings his right arm around her neck and begins dragging her backward out of frame. Footage also seems to show the suspect in a nearby store prior to the attack, AMNY noted. 

Watch below:

Police said, following the rape, he fled the area heading southbound on Davidson Avenue, according to the outlet. 

“Authorities say the woman also suffered cuts on her nose and mouth,” WNBC reported. “She was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment.”

Police said the suspect is a black man who donned a black hoodie, black jeans, a multi-colored du-rag, and black and white sneakers, AMNY noted. He was also in possession of a red and black backpack during the attack.

Anyone with information regarding the incident is urged to contact NYPD’s Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS (8477).

The incident comes as New York City has seen an alarming jump in crime under Democratic Mayor Eric Adams’s watch. While Adams focuses on issues like women breaking into Major League Baseball — as reported by Breitbart News — crime has seen a 47.1 percent increase since he was sworn on January 1 through March 6, compared to the same period in 2021, the NYPD’s crime statistics show. Moreover, rape has seen a 31.4 percent increase this year compared to last, over the same time frame.

Suspect apprehended in multiple killings of the homeless in Washington, D.C. and New York City

Gerald Brevard III was arrested Tuesday morning by agents of the federal Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives bureau in southeast Washington, D.C. Brevard, 30, is wanted in connection with a string of shootings and stabbings of homeless persons in the District and in Manhattan, New York.

Brevard was turned in to authorities after a multiple-city manhunt which involved federal authorities as well as the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) and the New York City Police Department (NYPD).

He is suspected of the killing of two people and the serious injury of three others in the two cities. On March 3, Brevard allegedly shot three homeless District residents as they lay asleep. One man, 54-year old Morgan Holmes, was killed and left inside his tent, which was set on fire. Police found his body a day later.

On March 9 in lower Manhattan, Brevard allegedly shot two men, one fatally. “The victim had lain in the street for hours before authorities were summoned,” wrote the Associated Press. Two more men were attacked last Saturday, again in New York.

Brevard was connected to the shootings in both cities through surveillance video and the .22 caliber bullets used on his victims. According to the AP, the two cities’ Democratic mayors credited their “swift coordination” in response to the killings for bringing Brevard into custody. However, a tip from Brevard’s family was ultimately the key to his apprehension.

Gerald Brevard, Jr., the suspect’s father, texted a reporter for the New York Times, stating that his son “suffers from mental illness” and that the “failure of the judicial system” to find treatment for him was ultimately to blame. The elder Brevard extended his “deepest condolences” to his son’s victims and their families.

The younger Brevard had a history of mental health issues as well as violent behavior. According to relatives, he had also been homeless for a time. In 2018, he was arrested for assault charges and later pled guilty to assault with a deadly weapon. A 2019 court ruling determined him to be mentally incompetent and he spent time at Saint Elizabeth’s Hospital in Washington, DC.

According to the elder Brevard, “[the city] said he was healthy so they let him out… I knew he wasn’t healthy. I know my son.” News reports have compared the string of killings to a recent New York City incident where a woman was pushed in front of an oncoming subway train by a homeless man suffering from schizophrenia.

Despite Brevard’s clear history of mental disorder, Eric Adams, New York City’s Democratic Mayor, sought to paint the crimes in purely moral terms. “Gun violence against anyone, let alone our most vulnerable populations, is sick,” he stated. Adams hypocritically declared “those experiencing homelessness can breathe a sigh of relief today.”

Adams, who came into office preaching a tough-on-crime message, recently enacted a homeless-removal program which the Times was compelled to admit “would push many people to the street who refuse to stay in the city’s barracks-like group shelters.”

Nearly 47,000 people stay in New York City’s homeless shelters, which the Times states are “rife with crime and interpersonal conflict.” Of this number, nearly 14,000 are children. Many thousands more remain un-housed in the city.

The District of Columbia has enacted a similar homeless removal program called “Coordinated Assistance and Resources for Encampments” (CARE). The program is designed to provide rapid re-housing for homeless individuals found in the city’s massive encampments.

In a letter published by the Washington Post last October, local ward administrators stated that while Democratic Mayor Muriel Bowser’s “concept may seem appealing in the abstract, in practice, this carrot-and-stick approach is harming the very residents it hopes to help.”

According to the local government advisers, CARE “is not principally meant to assist unhoused residents with their transition into housing. Instead, it prioritizes the removal of encamped residents and places a prohibition on their return, even if they have not moved into housing.”

The Post noted in a separate article published in January, “One of the points made repeatedly by those opposed to the swift dismantling of… encampments was that those forced evictions were tearing apart established communities and pushing the unhoused into more isolated places” where vulnerable individuals can be singled out and victimized. “The way the city is doing this is a war. It’s a war on the most vulnerable among us,” stated lawyer Tara Vassefi.

“You have to be out there to understand that on any given night, things change so fast, and you can end up with a world of hurt… you never know when someone is going to come at you, maybe to rob you or bonk you on the head,” stated Gregory Hammett, a 62-year old homeless veteran, in comments to the AP. “Listen, the streets are dangerous,” said Marty Mercer, who lives at an encampment outside of the District’s Union Station. “Just because someone is doing this on a serial basis is no different.”

The District of Columbia has wound down its pandemic aid programs. A March 2021 Post article quoted Amber Harding of the Washington Legal Clinic for the Homeless, who warns that absent the various stimulus programs, “a much, much deeper recession, or depression… is just lying in wait to explode family homelessness.'

In August, the city ended its moratorium on evictions, while claiming that a federally-funded rent assistance program would fill the gaps. In September, members of the city’s Democratic Party-controlled legislature denounced the mayor’s STAY DC program, stating it was “not nimble enough to issue payments before these evictions occur.”

Queens man with history of violence charged for attacking 2-year-old sitting in a stroller

Rebecca Moon

A man was charged on Saturday for flipping a toddler’s stroller into the street in East Flushing, New York, leaving the 2-year-old with cuts and bruises to her face.

The unprovoked attack occurred on Friday around 6:20 a.m. after Christopher Elder, 31, began shouting at the child’s grandmother, Maria Zamora, while she was taking out the trash in east Flushing. According to a criminal complaint, Elder then allegedly grabbed the stroller that Sophia was sitting in and began to shake it, kicking it into the street shortly after.

The 2-year-old hit the ground after being kicked and suffered cuts to the head, requiring five stitches at the Flushing Hospital Medical Center.

Her uncle, Juan Loja, told the New York Post that the toddler is “very scared” and “didn’t want to come home yesterday.” He also said that she tells him, “Someone hit me. Someone kicked me.”

This incident is the second time that Elder has purportedly attacked a child in four months. On Dec. 11, he allegedly attacked a mother and her 9-year-old daughter in Flushing with punches to the head.

“He hit me mostly in the back of my head, my back,” the mother, who wished to remain anonymous, told NBC New York. “He ended up hitting my daughter too, in the face, on the forehead. ” Afterwards, when he was done hitting us on the floor, I was just so upset that nobody helped, nobody stopped him, and I’m even more mad that he did it again.”

Elder has been arrested eight times in total for multiple violent crimes. He previously stabbed a friend in August 2020 and was also accused of smashing a glass bottle on a 30-year-old man’s head in Queens.

Elder was charged on Saturday and sent to jail without bail. He is due in court March 28 on charges of assault, endangering the welfare of a child and harassment.
