The precinct is up in summons for all six categories that Vision Zero focuses on, which includes speeding, running red lights and stop signs, improper turns and cell phone usage while driving. The executive officer cited many injurious accidents to not wearing seat belts and strongly advised the room to do so, saying it does save lives. Fighting break-ins, noise The 106th Precinct has seen a slew of car break-ins, with eight in Howard Beach, which could have been avoided had the vehicles been secured, according to Deputy Inspector Jeffrey Schiff, the force’s commanding officer. “If you secure your car doors, chances are you won’t be a victim,” said Schiff. Approximately 95 criminal court “class C” summons were issued last month for noise, and equipment was confiscated, according to Schiff, who is leading an aggressive attack on the 106th Precinct’s longtime noise problem. Last month in Operation Silent Night (#operationsilentnight), residents could tweet Schiff noise complaints and he would personally show up with officers trained to use a sound meter and, if necessary, take enforcement action. Frank Dardani, the council’s president said, “Word needs to travel that equipment is being confiscated and there is no tolerance for noise.” On July 4, the precinct dealt with 130 firework or noise complaints which did not include other incidents in the area.

Robberies are up 28 percent, with 23 last month. Legislators’ report City Council Member Eric Ulrich commended the 106th Precinct on an outstanding job.

As one of the armored car guards exited from the bank pushing a cart full of cash, he was reportedly approached in the lobby by the two thieves, one of whom pointed a .45- cal. handgun in his face. The third suspect joined them and removed the cash. On the way out of the bank, it was noted, the bandit in the black hooded sweater sprayed the guard with mace, authorities stated.

In a 2007 interview with BBC, Tommy Ramone stated the band was inspired by another locally-based rock band of the early ’70s—the New York Dolls—as well as singer Lou Reed and pop art icon Andy Warhol. They got their big break, and first recording contract, after performing at the famous CBGB club in Lower Manhattan. Tommy Ramone is credited with writing “I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend,” which appeared on the same album with “Blitzkrieg Bop.” The latter song, co-written by Tommy and Dee Dee Ramone, is arguably the band’s most well-known hit. After three albums, Tommy Ramone left the band to concentrate on music production from behind the scenes. Marc Bell (a.k.a. Marky Ramone), took his place in the band. Along with coproducing The Ramones’ 1984 album “Too Tough to Die,” Tommy Ramone produced The Replacements debut album “Tim” in 1985 and punk rockers Redd Kross’ “Neurotica” in 1987. In his later years, Tommy Ramone would broaden his musical spectrum, as he began producing bluegrass music with his long-time girlfriend, Claudia Tienan, as the duo “Uncle Monk.” The Ramones disbanded completely in 1996, and its founding members would each suffer tragic fates that led to their untimely deaths. Joey Ramone died of lymphoma in 2001, followed a year later by Dee Dee Ramone, who succumbed to a drug overdose. Johnny Ramone lost a battle with prostate cancer in 2004. Tommy Ramone is survived by Tienan and an older brother. Funeral arrangements were private. -CONTINUED FROM PG. 10- Rogers.
