There was a similar robbery like that on Rosh Hashana at 8 p.m. on 59th st between 18 and 19th ave. However it wasn't a home invasion but they semmed to be profressional and also entered thorugh the window and took cash and valuables.

A home on 45th Street, 8-9 Ave, was also broken into last Thursday evening, Erev Rosh Hasahana, at an odd time, just before 8 p.m.-a time when you would expect people to be home. As it happens, they were out grocery shopping. Their son came home just before the parents,interrupting the burglary. When he realized someone was in the house, he ran out. The parents drove up a minute later. The father ran toward the house, when he saw his son and heard his shouts- passing the goniv on the way out. The sheigetz ran toward a waiting car, which took off. The mother, who'd still been outside next to their car, had the presence of mind to note the license plate number. The police were able to trace the goniv through the plate number and arrested the son of the car's owner. I don't know if any stolen items were recovered.
These were not wealthy people, just very ehrliche, hard-working poor people, who could ill afford the loss of the items stolen from them. Yet, they have a very positive attitude, b"h. This must be a cheshbon that still had to be paid last year. They had to undergo a loss last year apparently, and b"h, it was only "things"- not ,ch"v, something worse!
The goniv appeared to be of Mexican / Indian (NOT Indo-Pakistani) origin. These type of people seem to be everywhere these days- working in almost every store, at most construction jobs and in many homes. There seems to be a surge of robberies, car break-ins and burglaries in Boro Park, lately. I wonder...

שוד מזעזע בארה"ב. אלמונים לבושים בשחור ורעולי פנים חדרו אמש (שני) כשעה לאחר סיום צום גדליה לביתו של הרב וואלף זיכרמן ראש הקהל של חסידות מונקאטש הנמצא בלב השכונה החרדית בורו פארק, כפתו אותו וציוו על רעייתו לפתוח את הכספת שהכילה מעל 10 מיליון דולר במזומן. לאחמ"כ כפתו גם את רעייתו ונמלטו מהמקום ברכב מילוט שהמתין להם במקום. מחקירה ראשונית עולה כי השודדים חדרו מחלון קטן בצד האחורי של הבית וניתקו את מערכת החשמל וכך מצלמות האבטחה לא צילמו דבר. הכסף שנשדד היה מיועד לצרכי צדקה למשפחות נזקקות. הרב זיכרמן ידוע כבעל צדקה גדול ופועל רבות לטובת משפחות נזקקות. את המקרה גילו בני המשפחה שהגיעו ומצאו את הוריהם כפותים, ומיד הזעיקו את המשטרה שהגיעה בכוחות מתוגברים למקום. ל"לדעת.נט" נמסר כי למשטרת ניו יורק יש קצה חוט בפרשה זאת לאחר אחד השכנים שהבחין באותם שודדים יוצאים רעולי פנים, הצליח לרשום את מספר הרכב, דבר שכעת נבדק ע"י משטרת ניו יורק.

To Mr Zicherman who is known to be a tremendous baal chesed Btzinah I hope they catch these perpetrators
If it is $10 mill. he is going to have alot of explaining to do to the Feds- and that will be a bigger headache to him than the money being taken from him under such circumstances

1010 Wins-
Couple Terrorized in Boro Park Home
NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Two people in ski masks broke into a Brooklyn home and terrorized a couple Monday night.
Officials said the well-known orthodox couple was tied-up with duct tape and found by neighbors inside their home on 16th Avenue in Boro Park.
Police said the suspects took cash and jewelry from a safe.
Police are looking for a white Yukon truck that the thieves allegedly drove away in.
No serious injuries were reported.

While I am not here to support or discredit the Shomrim, what is it exactly that you want the shomrim to do for you hours after the car was broken into.
The shomrim don't get kovod, they only get called names by people like you. There is no kovod involved at all.
Also, the shomrim do alot of things that the community at large is not even aware of. And its better that way!!!

Many leave in middle of work hours to try to catch a ganif in your driveway, or look for a missing child, or help open a car door with the keys inseide, and its 90 degrees and a child is inside!! WHAT KOVOD ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??? Kovod from the little child who's life was just saved?? You silly fool! You don't deserve that shomrim should ever respond to your calls! Go pray on Yom kippur well! you are probally a kovod mentch who got insulted that a non paying volonteer didnt drop everything and go help you, were the ganif was long gone!! Be well.
Shomrim does a wonderful job, keep it up Shomrim guys!!

I personally know the Zichermans and I know them to be quiet tzaddikim, tyere mentchen, with goldene middos. There are practically hundreds or thousands of people being helped by them for many many years on a steady basis without any noise or fanfare. Mr. Zicherman is highly respected in the real estate business and he is know for his fair and straight dealings. His tenants, many of who are minority/poor, think highly of him and he treats them very well. The City of New York has entruted him with some of the worst apartment buildings in the city because he has a reputation running an honest, clean operation. Anyone whio has the gall to disparage them now in their time of hurt has stooped to a level so low, its not even passig for a UTA graduate.

This is a very sad story. We should all donate funds to Mr. Z's charities before the Yom Tov. Many people will be deprived of his generosity. The community should focus their energies on aiding the investigation, locate the ganavim, and return the money.

The fact that many people criticize the shomrim is proof of itself that the members aren't doing it for kovod.
It's obvious that the community on this site are not aware of what the shomrim do.
As for preventing crime, in Boro Park this year, Jan - current, the BP Shomrim have stopped over 130 crimes in progress with almost 80 arrests that they were responsible for. So much for never catching anyone.
Most people call the shomrim after a crime occured. The shomrim cannot investigate crimes, and can't file police reports. That's why they ask you to call police. If there is a crime in progress the shomrim will respond.
Besides crime fighting there is community service that they do as well. How many people are aware that the BP shomrim responds to an average of 3 missing persons a week?? Tell the family of an alzheimers patient that is missing that the shomrim do it for kovod and are worthless. Let's see what the police will do in that case other than file a report.
As for the safes, and the comment that a safe person must be involved, who do you think is following a known heimishe safe ganif? The shomrim!! Where is our great NYPD??
When there was a rash of GPS robberies all occuring friday night when the robbers know the Shomrim are not around, where was the NYPD?? Who forced them to place extra patrols? The shomrim.
It is obvious by the comments on this site, that most of those posting are immature kids, and probably driving around with lights and sirens.
