Bronxville Police Blotter: November 15 to November 19, 2020

By Bronxville Police Department

Nov. 25, 2020: The following entries are from the Bronxville police blotter.

November 15, 2020, 3:10 pm: Bronxville Police announce the arrest of a 37-year old man of Yonkers, Stalking in the 4th Degree. The details are below.
                     
A female employee of a Bronxville business reported that an unknown male made a purchase in her place of employment on November 5, 2020. After feeling uneasy over the interaction, the employee viewed the store video, which confirmed her fears. In the video, the male is seen recording the employee with his cell phone while massaging himself and positioning himself uncomfortably close to the employee. The employee reported to police that she observed the same male outside of her home in Yonkers on two occasions after the purchase on November 5th. 
 
On November 14, 2020, the employee reported that the male returned to the Bronxville business but did not make a purchase. These repeated intentional actions with no legitimate purpose made the victim reasonably fear for her health and safety.  
 
Bronxville Police viewed the surveillance footage from the establishment and identified the individual as a 37-year-old man of Yonkers.  The man was known to the Department due to his recent arrest and subsequent release on November 12, 2020, for Public Lewdness, a class B misdemeanor for intentionally exposing his private parts in public.  That incident occurred on the Westchester County bike path on the Tuckahoe/Bronxville border on November 12, 2020.  The man was arrested on November 12, 2020, by WCPD for those actions.  
 
On November 15, 2020, at 15:10 hours, the man was observed outside of the aforementioned Bronxville business again. The man was arrested and charged with Stalking in the 4th Degree, a class B misdemeanor.  
 
He was arraigned in the Bronxville Justice Court and released on his own recognizance. Temporary order of protection served upon the man on behalf of the victim.  
 
November 16, 2020, 1:28 pm, Pondfield Road: A wallet was found on the sidewalk; a message was left for the owner.
 
November 18, 2020, 12:02 pm, Pondfield Road: A woman out for a walk reported that she was knocked down by a large dog resulting in pain in her arm and shoulder.  The dog owner was home and is aware of the incident.  
 
November 19, 2020, 1:20 pm, Midland Avenue: Motor vehicle accident, two vehicles, no injuries.  A driver reportedly experienced seizure-like medical symptoms and struck the vehicle in front of him.  The driver was treated by EVAC on the scene and released.  A motor vehicle accident report and a driver review were completed.

Bronxville Overview

Bronxville is a quaint village (one square mile) located just 16 miles north of midtown Manhattan (roughly 30 minutes on the train) and has a population of approximately 6,500. It is known as a premier community with an excellent public school (K-12) and easy access to Manhattan. Bronxville offers many amenities including an attractive business district, a hospital (Lawrence Hospital), public paddle and tennis courts, fine dining at local restaurants, two private country clubs and a community library.

While the earliest settlers of Bronxville date back to the first half of the 18th century, the history of the modern suburb of Bronxville began in 1890 when William Van Duzer Lawrence purchased a farm and commissioned the architect, William A. Bates, to design a planned community of houses for well-known artists and professionals that became a thriving art colony. This community, now called Lawrence Park, is listed on the National register of Historic Places and many of the homes still have artists’ studios. A neighborhood association within Lawrence Park called “The Hilltop Association” keeps this heritage alive with art shows and other events for neighbors.

Bronxville offers many charming neighborhoods as well as a variety of living options for residents including single family homes, town houses, cooperatives and condominiums. One of the chief benefits of living in “the village” is that your children can attend the Bronxville School.

The Bronxville postal zone (10708, known as “Bronxville PO”) includes the village of Bronxville as well as the Chester Heights section of Eastchester, parts of Tuckahoe and the Lawrence Park West, Cedar Knolls, Armour Villa and Longvale sections of Yonkers. Many of these areas have their own distinct character. For instance, the Armour Villa section has many historic homes and even has its own newsletter called “The Villa Voice” which reports on neighborhood news.
