    Sgt. Robert Lancia went to East Concord Drive. What Lancia found was a 22-year-old man with autism who had climbed atop the Hamaspik of Rockland group home and refused to come down.

    Eventually, a firefighter with the Monsey Fire Department and a member of Chaverim, a neighborhood assistance program, joined Lancia on the roof. The three circled the man, and the Chaverim member, Jack Rosenberg, offered his hand to the man for a handshake. The man shook it.

    So Lancia offered his hand, too.

    When the man took it, Lancia pulled him in, embracing him in a hug.

    “He didn’t put up a fight,” Lancia said. Lancia, Rosenberg and the firefighter, Chaim Neiman, and other rescue workers lowered the man onto a garage rooftop and then to the ground, where help – from the Ramapo Police Department, the Monsey Fire Department, Chaverim and Hatzoloh – was waiting. The man, Lancia said, was uninjured and didn’t require medical attention.

    Man throws pashkevilin against Hatzolah in Williamsburg for violating curfew

    A man that was apparently quite upset over the Hatzolah party that was supposed to take place this passed Motzei Shabbos, since it would inevitably cause a violation to the Williamsburg night time curfew, threw out pashkevilin against Hatzolah. The man was dragged into a store and ‘taught a lesson’. The rabbonim subsequently requested that Hatzolah reschedule their party for another time that would be more curfew friendly. Hatzolah complied to their demands.
