Troopers were seen gathering with local cops along Roosevelt Avenue near 83rd and 84th streets, awaiting instructions on specific patrols to clean up what neighborhood activists decried as a corridor that had become an “urban crime zone” and home to “more brothels than bodegas.”
Last week, the Let’s Improve Roosevelt Avenue Coalition urged Hochul to send in state troopers, while NYPD Interimpersonally visited the notorious strip over the weekend and promised more resources to fight prostitution and sex trafficking and other crimes plaguing the area. “We support our police, and the community is looking forward to seeing positive results,” he added. “We need public safety and quality of life returned to Jackson Heights, Elmhurst, Corona and East Elmhurst and we will remain vigilant.”Ramon Ramirez-Baez of the coalition said the group was “confident” that the community was taking a turn for the better.
“We have troopers assigned to assist the NYPD and the Queens District Attorney’s Office to address issues on Roosevelt Avenue, which will be ongoing,” said state Police spokesman Beau Duffy.
