The NYPD will be beefing up enforcement this summer on sidewalk barbecues.
It’s high-steaks police work.
“I know people don’t really want to hear it,” said the officer, who added that the enforcement is aimed in part at cutting down summer shootings. “They’re like ‘That’s bull—t. We’re just having a good time.’ But the truth is someone gets stupid and a shooting happens. You knock the barbecues out and it helps eliminate the problem.”
“No sidewalk BBQ’s,” a flier posted in Harlem’s 28th Precinct near Morningside Park reads. “No public alcohol consumption. No obstruction on the sidewalk with tables, chairs, etc.” “The use of a charcoal, electric, or piped natural gas or propane barbecue indoors, or on any commercial property, or on any sidewalk or street, is illegal,” it reads.“I couldn’t joke about this if I wanted to,” Clinton Bowman railed on TikTok.
But 35-year-old Natasha Stefanovic, who moved to Bed-Stuy last year with her husband, toddler and newborn, said she’d be happy for cops to toss water on the fire. “That would be great if the police would get rid of them because they’re annoying,” she said. “They play their music until 3 or 4 in the morning. It’s annoying and I can’t sleep.”
Meanwhile, at another barbecue in Coney Island’s Kaiser Park, men and woman packed up and left without incident after officers from the 60th Precinct arrived, a video posted on Twitter shows. Barbecues are a heated issue in City Councilman Robert Holden’s Queens district, which includes Glendale, Maspeth, Middle Village, Ridgewood, Woodhaven and Woodside.
