We had a unique emergency where my staff was being attacked while I, the owner, was out of state. My staff didn’t have access to their phones and I called the police department to beg for help. Receptionist was rude and did not know how to handle an emergency. She didn’t ask any questions about the situation or even put me in touch with someone who could have helped. She just wanted to get off the phone and not deal with me telling me, saying “this is how it works”. No idea what that meant. Poor training and terrible people skills; I have had more effective and compassionate communication at the DMV. Really disappointing; definitely makes the entire police department look inept.

  • Tricky Strauss

One of the worst precincts in New York City. Detective Squad and RIP are unable to identify an IP And have no awareness of a digital footprint. A variety of Detectives from this Precinct Impersonate the Federal Bureau of Investigation and have no integrity. The Inability to communicate with the Bureau in order to impersonate them has allowed the detectives to fall into a pattern of frequent Fraudulent &a Malicious Arrest that yield no results.

  • Jzon Gonzalez

Horriable, called because we had a block party and cars were moving the barricades so they can park. Officer told us there's nothing they can do. For small things to arrest us or tickets us they will show up but God forbid your trying to have a peaceful community block party like decent human beings and they can't help you. Thanks .. typical and if i fight the owner of the car i will get in trouble thanks for nothing ..

  • robert vasquez

The fact that a commanding officer is giving orders to “kill a civilian on site” is the most disgusting thing I’ve ever heard of. Why is this man still in the position of power? How can a community feel safe, when the person in charge of our safety is so ruthless and wreckless. He should not only be stripped of his badge, he should be charged with a crime.

  • abu sofian

If i could i would give zero. I picked up my police report from there and saw there was a mistake the officer made. I asked to refix it they told me only the office who wrote the report can fix it. But he's on vacation so i have to wait till he comes back, which i did and went bacK. BUT NOW they said sorry it cant be done it has to be done within 10 days.

  • Katherine Powell

In a hit and run accident in Brooklyn after 3 hours of waiting we ended up going to the station to file a report. What a joke! I have respect for police but they weren't very friendly or helpful. Zero stars from me!

  • Donnie B Miller

The lady I spoke to, your switchboard operator, horrible manners. You should find someone who actually wants to be there and help people, not talk down to people. I'd give 0 stars if I could
