The Juniper Berry
The Juniper Berry magazine has a rich tradition in the communities of Middle Village, Maspeth and Elmhurst. It was first published in 1938. The quarterly magazine is an all-volunteer effort and contains articles on crime prevention, neighborhood issues, meeting reports and notices, neighborhood history and photographs, guest articles, editorials and more.
Again, we ask NYPD and Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani why the hell is this happening on your watch?
Wait in till the new ibx train passes through 69th and the new 🏗🏢🏬🏢🏢 get put up .
Can you imagine what this summer will be like?
We need a bunch Bernard Goetz out there
I used to be the PS2 in Dist 5 and 6 (2011-4) and never heard of any reports of this type of violence at Juniper. Terrible
This isnt the Middle Village I knew And grew up in …. I think the community better start coming together very strong and very loud and take over the community since no one else is protecting you . Start fighting and intimidating and being louder then the UNDESIRABLES trying to threaten and intimidate us !!!!!
social workers only work 9-5 and not on weekends
Result of no consequences im pretty sure we know who to thank for that
Were they going over 15 mph in a school zone? If not then I guess all is good
Because he encourages violence
Mad Commie doesn't give a damn. He only knows Manhattan. I guess when people start getting killed or one of the cars ignites a fire in the gas station and many are killed, then the moron will do something? God help us all.
Arm yourselves...
Coloreds
Mandani effect
This wouldve got taken care of in the 90s, we need someone to take care of this again
Bring back night sticks for cops
Get what you vote for NYC
The usual suspects strike again.
When the mayor hates NYPD, cuts budget and other nyc officials don’t back the PD- this is what happens
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani says our streets are safe tho no crime at all CNN FOX 5 NY ABC7NY Spectrum News NY1
Well Madani is too busy trying to cut $22M NYPD budget.
He DONT CARE this is the bigger plan a free for all !
Instead of keeping our current parks safe, Mamdani is funding the The QueensWay, which could bring problems like this behind homes in Phil Wong's district.
To which "phobia" is this going to be chalked up?
Same sh it that was happening under Adams.
They need to keep these thugs in jail and bring back stop and frisk. The fire engines should of came and ran into all of them enough is enough. People are leaving New York no one feels safe anymore. They're also, in the parks scaring people to with little children.
Update from NYPD 104th Precinct
So the people that reported it said it took them 7 minutes to respond, Wong posted it took 2 minutes and now this says 3 minutes. Want to guess who is telling the truth?
Was anyone arrested? I read in the post that two patrol cars got their windshields smashed
That wasn’t drag racing 😡
An intersection causing a tactical disadvantage. Maybe the disadvantage was one police car that no one is obviously goin to worry about.
In other words bathing will happen to the animals
speed camera on 69th street, maybe a vehicle will be photographed there
wow someone got a summons, that'll teach em.
What does Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani have to say about this? Just kids having fun?
The police had to block all the roads so they can’t get fled.
Anamils with cars… thank you 104th for all you did

104 and 110 need to put more pressure on the FIO's in their respective commands. These meet-ups are clearly being organized via social media. The FIO's need to be on top that.
Wow a summons!
As long as there’s no consequences, these people will be back again 
Neice worked there 30 years ago,never had these problems was shocked.
This wasn’t drag racing this was stupidity. Lighting a fire feet within a gas station??!!!
Why bother, NYC judges will have them out in no time anyway. Mayor will say they are just kids playing innocent games.
They call it drag racing??? Setting fires near 2 gas stations and doing donuts while waving palestinian flags is not drag racing. It's planned disturbances and intimidation tactics by certain groups. It's going to be a long summer.
You need to get to who is organizing these
You all need to get tough, this is noi the old west . Consequences are need not a pat on the back. The old middle village would not stand for this.
SO 1 SUMMONS WAS ISSUED ???? WOW THAT'LL REALLY DETER THEM. THE RESULT OF THAT ENTIRE INCIDENT WAS 1 SUMMONS....THATS A DISGRACE !!!!
Horseshit
Just call in an airstrike.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Than you Phil for addressing this
I want to know who called it in that got a 2 minutes response time.
Thank you for the strong law enforcement support, Councilman.
Other than words, what real action is being done? What a joke. 30 years ago, that would have never happened there.
NY FORGOT.
Too little too late. 1 car out of 100 gets a summons? No arrests? This city is finished. Cops whining they're not appreciated, understaffed, unsupported by elected officials and everyone blaming democrats and liberals is skirting the real issue. Our elected officials have failed us, ALL of them. We are prisoners in our homes, can't wear jewelry, take money out of the bank, go out at night. Its disgusting!
they gotta do a lot more about these inserts. This is a public safety issue stiff fines, and arrest have to be made.
Glad it's getting widespread attention! Shaming the people in charge is the only way to get this addressed.

A lawless mob wreaked fiery havoc on a Queens intersection during a late-night car takeover as local lawmakers demand a crackdown on these unhinged meetups.Perhaps we're overreacting just a tad? Back in the day behavior like this was confined to industrial and other non-residential areas. I'm not condoning these actions, then or now, but I bet a good percentage of the outraged people participated in similar activities. I know I did.
I THINK ITS TIME FOR THE VIGILANTES OF THE 70S TO MAKE A COMEBACK. ONLY WAY THE CITIZENS CAN REGAIN CONTROL
Don't worry, the individuals who smashed the police windshield were eventually caught... and issued a summons...
You voted for this, enjoy!
How about a helicopter or drone dumping paint on them then we can ID them easily.
Gonna be a hell of a summer
Time for rubber bullets.
Welcome to NY people
Yes, they can
lol. Cops did nothing I heard
It’s all fun till someone gets killed
Mamdani’s NYC
Since politicians are useless bring back organized crime and watch how fast this stops
Given what happened To that Nypd Sergeant for throwing a cooler at someone fleeing, how could any honest New Yorker expect the NYPD to clean this mess up. If ANY force has to be used or a participant gets injured as a result of a chase (which are forbidden for such events) of any kind, the Mayor, the District Attorney, the Complaint Review. Board will all over the police. I feel for the residents but without the support of the Administration, this will not be easily resolved.
If there are no consequences this illegal behavior will continue! 😡
Confiscate there cars and this shit will stop
All those cameras that get me doing a mph over the speed limit should be able to ID some of these folks. Rather than the police sitting in their cars and giving me a summons when they think I didn’t fully stop at a stop sign when no person or car was even there they should focus on this stuff. But then again doing that would require some effort
Bring back Law and Order.
Elections have consequences…… enjoy the chaos
Welcome to NewYorkastan!
Shaming politicians is NOT THE WAY!
Third world country goals
That nothing. Come to Dallas Ft.Worth, they have street takeovers everywhere. Even on major freeways.
Momdami.
And why hasn't anyone been arrested?
This is totally unacceptable and we need to ask why this continues to go on. NYPD does nothing, Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani does nothing.

Police spokesperson- one car was issued a summons? What about setting a fire in the street between two gas stations?? No mention. What a joke.

My uncle, a retired NYC detective lived like 5 doors down from that Mobile station on the left. I worked there as a kid. He’d be rolling over in his grave if he saw that shit today!! SMFH. Used to be a great neighborhood especially Juniper Valley Park!! 🤬
This is insane!
Did the 104 even show up?
