Watch Brooklyn South Season 1 Episode 22 Queens for a Day

Borough Park, NY - If you live in Borough Park section of Brooklyn you might notice the members of the Brooklyn South Safety Patrol (BSSP) also know as Shomrim Patrol looking a little more like the National Guard, that's because starting today officers will be wearing bullet-proof vest while on patrol. The new addition comes amid worry over the shootings last week of four of their members, as was reported here on Vos Iz Neias, in what otherwise is known as a safe neighborhood. Also pitching in is New York State Senator Eric Adams (D, Brooklyn)who will hold a press conference later today to announce the purchase of some bullet proof vests for the members of Borough Park Shomrim. Senator Adams states in a press release, "I visited one of the injured patrol members in the hospital; we must do everything we can to protect these brave men who put themselves in harm's way to protect us from danger. A bullet proof vest cannot guarantee safety, but it may save a life." "The Shomrim risk their own security in their valiant effort to protect their fellow citizens, and I hold its members in the highest esteem." At the press conference, Senator Adams will display a sample vest that will be purchased for the group,
