As AVP told you on January 17th, 2013, on Sunday January 13th, a member of the Crown Heights, Brooklyn LGBTQ community, Jabbar Campbell was attacked by NYPD officers from the 77th Precinct. This area has a history of police violence against LGBTQ people. AVP and partner organizations responded with a community safety night on January 26th in Crown Heights to increase our communities' awareness of our rights and how to stay safe. AVP has since learned of reports that Campbell and his roommates have experienced subsequent harassment by NYPD members. According to multiple media sources, the police have returned several times to the apartment to interrogate Campbell's roommates. As in the case of the original incident, there is security footage of these incidents.
