More cops to walk the beat in Coney Island
Officials announce bigger police presence for Summer 2016
It’s winter, but in Coney Island, thoughts are already turning to summer.
Coney Island residents and visitors will see an increased security presence during the summer of 2016, according to elected officials who said they worked out an agreement with City Hall to bring more cops to the neighborhood.
Borough President Eric Adams, state Sen. Diane Savino, Councilmember Mark Treyger and Assemblymember Pamela Harris worked with City Hall to implement improved safety measures and fraud prevention programs in Coney Island’s amusement and residential areas.
