Notoriously violent Brooklyn neighborhood pushes ‘police free zone’

A notoriously violent two-block stretch of Brooklyn is fighting crime — by not calling uniformed cops, The Post has learned. A sliver of Brownsville in the NYPD’s 73rd Precinct was transformed into a “police free zone” last week as part of an city-funded experiment called the Brownsville Safety Alliance that initially was only twice a year but now runs four times annually, organizers said. And it’s an initiative that’s received praise from anti-cop, mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani, an official with the group that runs it told The Post.
