Councilman King Shows Up At the 47th Precinct With a Big Check


  No the commanding officer of the 47th Precinct didn't win the lottery, but he did get a check for one million dollars to help fix up his old precinct house. By the way the NYC Police Commissioner James P. O'Neill was also on hand to watch Councilman King put his John Hancock on the million dollar check and answer a few questions later on.

To my question of lack of police enforcement on the streets to stop hazardous drivers, the commissioner responded by saying that the department has changed over the years, crime is at its lowest point in many many years, and police officers have been assigned to details such as anti-terrorism.
