Following a pursuit from Ridgewood to Maspeth, police personnel apprehended on Wednesday afternoon, Mar. 13, an emotionally disturbed person who was armed with a machete and wanted for a crime in Bushwick. Reportedly, the suspect was taken into custody and strapped to a gurney after being located on the roof of an auto repair shop on Grand Avenue between 74th and 79th streets at around 4:15 p.m., just before the Times Newsweekly went to press. More details about the incident, as they emerge, will be in next week’s issue.
