Oh rats! Dyker Heights residents spot rodents near park
Donald Tremblay and his wife were taking a walk around the perimeter of Dyker Beach Park on a recent evening when their pleasant stroll was ruined by an ugly sight: rats scurrying around in their vicinity.
As awful as it was, the rat sighting wasn’t a fluke, according to Tremblay, who said he and his wife also spotted rodents at the same location while walking around the park a few nights later.
“On two different nights while it was still light, my wife and I walked around Dyker Park and encountered rats on the corner of 86th Street and Seventh Avenue,” Tremblay told the Home Reporter.
