Afford
everyone a
smoke-free
start
Secondhand smoke is a known cause of Sudden
Infant Death Syndrome, ear infections and asthma
attacks in infants and children. While many luxury
apartment buildings are now smoke-free, affordable
housing residents often endure daily exposure from
neighboring apartments.
It is critical that affordable housing go smoke-free
so that all, including the youngest and most
vulnerable, can live healthy lives free from the
dangers of secondhand smoke.

protections, visit nycsmokefree.org

Brooklyn Paper
A Downtown Brooklyn
man barricaded himself
inside his Bond Street
apartment after suffering
a psychotic break Monday
night, leading to a standoff
with police.
Officers responding to a
so-called “wellness check”
— a request for police intervention
from friends or
family concerned about a
person’s mental health or
behavior — found the man
locked inside the apartment
between Livingston
and Schermerhorn streets
around 6:30 pm.
Two trucks with the Police
Department’s Emergency
Service Unit and
several squad cars barricaded
the street outside,
while a police chopper
hovered overhead for at
least an hour.
Officers apprehended
the man at 7 pm, and secured
him to a gurney with
the assistance waiting of
paramedics, who rushed
him to the psych ward of
a nearby hospital for treatment.
