Attempted car robbery in Boro-Park
At about 3pm on Shabbos afternoon a man was seen looking into a car window and trying to break in. A Bochur caught on to what he was doing and started to watch him. As he was about to break the window, the Bochur came over to him and told him to leave before he called the Cops. The guy started to leave. As he was leaving he passed by the Bochur and stared into his face. The Bocher then told a Yingerman that was nearby to keep an eye on the guy because he may come back and try again later. The guy saw the Bochur talking to the Yingerman about him. He came back and began to scream at the Bochur, denying that he ever wanted to break into the car. He said that all he wanted to do was get some sunlight. The man then walked over to a sunny spot on the street, made believe he was getting a suntan and then left after a few minutes.

Shavua Tov…
Re: O.Gevald…
That would be making a chaburah, a wound, on the holy Shabbat which is forbidden.
The only possible thing to do is ask a gentile to notify the police. I do not think that would be forbidden, since technically it is not working for the Jew, rather for the community (gentiles and Jews combined).

"O.Gevald" you can say that again... What happened to Vos-Iz-Neias??? you're a team member if I remember correctly, perhaps can you shed some light here??
& Mr. Appel, if you don't know then don't talk, that's what they used to say aamool....

To Israel Appel;
Regarding your concerns over the chaburah. You must have forgotten that these guys may hold of the BP Eiruv. If so, they have no problem delivering a chaburah on shabbat, there's an eiruv.
