309ds agoPolice are investigating a break-in at a Flatbush
cemetery that left damage in its wake.
The gates to the Reformed Dutch Church Cemetery weren’t able
to keep out those looking to vandalize the property.
The perpetrator entered the cemetery and damaged 17 different
headstones, some of which have been around since the 1600s.
Police say they got the call just before 10:30 a.m. Tuesday
morning. No arrests have been made at this time.
The small graveyard lies along Flatbush Avenue. Neighbors
told News 12 that the church holds Mass on weekends. News 12 was unable
to get in touch with anyone from the church for comment.
