A vehicle stolen in Flatbush at approximately 7:45 AM was successfully recovered in Crown Heights around 2:00 PM.

This recovery was made possible thanks to Shomrim’s outstanding operations system and the seamless collaboration between Flatbush and Crown Heights Shomrim, working in tandem with the NYPD.

Shomrim responded swiftly to an urgent call from CTeen leadership to assist approximately 150 CTeens stranded at JFK Airport. Three vehicles and seven dedicated volunteers delivered food and water and provided critical logistics and transportation support, including assistance for an additional group of teens staying at a nearby hotel. In addition, Shomrim arranged and coordinated two buses to transport groups of teens back to Crown Heights.

Thank you to Rabbi Yaakov Behrman for helping ensure a smooth process with JFK security and leadership, in coordination with city officials and the NYPD. Special thanks as well to community activist Isaac Cohen for his invaluable assistance liaising with the Port Authority and the TSA, helping ensure a smooth outcome.

Thank you as well to Rabbi Bender of the Achiezer Community Resource Center for mobilizing additional resources.

A big thank-you to all the drivers and volunteers who truly went above and beyond.
