My office is aware of a planned "protest" this evening targeting the Young Israel of Jamaica Estates. I have been in contact with the 107th NYPD Precinct who will be deploying officers to keep the community safe.

NYC Buildings has issued a full vacate to the fire building and 107-53 130th Street which is a two-story building with two residential units.
NYPD remains on scene providing site security and enforcing street closures.
