June 15, 2010 — 6

Recently, Fucked In Park Slope published this beautiful photo that was taken a few years ago by someone who looked out their window in Park Slope and saw flames.

Crazy thing is that my wife just called to tell me that last night, right on our corner in Prospect Heights, Crooklyn, someone lit a car on fire. Rabbi Andy Bachman explained to Jordana that the car had been stripped, then burned to cover up the crooks’ tracks.

Courtney Holt, you were right. It seems I officially do live in the hood.

    Thanks, Aaron, great photo. Now I can say "our continuing coverage" of the Prospect Heights car explosion. – Ross

    Can't believe there are no stories at all covering this! This happened right outside my window (Vanderbilt/Park), preceded by a loud popping noise (twice- like gunshots) and then sirens and a crazy fire blaze that was very dramatic in the middle-of-the-night darkness. So people robbed the car and stripped it and set it on fire?

    Cool. I spent a long time looking for relevant content and found that your article gave me new ideas, which is very helpful for my research. I think my thesis can be completed more smoothly. Thank you.
