How to get rid of the Drug Dealers on Grand Avenue ?

clinton hill man

The drug dealers at 413 Grand Ave are getting really bad. Dealing in the street, fighting, load music and no one to stop them.

Last week they started a fire between two parked cars that was put out (quickly) by the fire department.

No shooting, yet, but only a matter of time.

Calls to 311 and 911 do little. Even reported the two of the cars used by the boss - A white BMW and Jeep.

Any ideas what to do to get rid of them ?

I suspect that gentrification is the only sure-fire way to get rid of street level dealers, but meeting with your precinct's Community Affair officer and politicians might help.

if its a crack house and owners are old etc.. always give them a call and tell them they could get a ton of money for the house and retire in lux.

Organized dealing in these parts is handled by the Brooklyn North Narcotics division. You can report it at 1-888-374-DRUG. Theoretically they'll watch the scene, send in undercover buyers, and do busts, etc...but don't hold your breath. Still, it's a decent place to start.

Good call, would be nice to get a faster result!

I have already given them some information and they know the address and that there is dealing going on.

In the event that none of the above works:

Learn the location of another drug dealer, whose location and turf is several blocks away.

Have friends who do not live in the neighborhood, create a drug war in yours!

Have them spread rumors to druggies re:

-superior drug quality

-turf violations

-"They keep lots of money under their sofa"

-"They got all those drugs, and they don't even have guns to protect it from being robbed"

The resulting surge of crime will cause more police presence and/or dead drug dealers.

Note: If done well, this strategy is very effective in getting rid of dealers, but there is the risk of you or your neighbors being hit by a stray bullet. Make sure your friends do this "work" in your neighborhood only one time each.
