The Department has partnered with the District Attorney’s office with the goal of eliminating this activity. District Attorney Martin has assigned an assistant district attorney to assist with the prosecution of offenders.
Didn't da Martin get funds from the 222 corridor to break up the Hamilton gang o thugs? Maybe on his lunch break at yeold limeport in with Pat browne in tow on the Harley's they colluded with dirt bike gang to rob Scott Powersports of a few bikes to Garner grant proceeds again and again!
ReplyDeleteThis all the while running all gangs from Lehighcounty courthouse headquarters!!¡
It's about time APD cracks down on these a**holes. They are a menace. I for one will not move for them when driving. Same with the idiots on bicycles doing wheelies all over the road or biking the wrong directions.
ReplyDeleteJust remember that as inconsiderate as they may be, most are immature kids and young adults. If you hurt one of them, it is you who will be charged.
ReplyDeleteBernie, is it because of these grant specialists that most of us brush our teeth with water that mr hideyhoe wouldnt even brush his teeth with? This is a good posibility of why the kids ride into uncomming traffic, lead and fecal ppm is playing its part.
ReplyDeleteThis enforcement is targeted racism.

It is about time. You may make excuses since you live in the white KKK capital of PA in Nazareth. We in Atwon have to deal with these "immature kids and y9oung adults" everyday. It is worse in summer.
ReplyDeleteThey ride as packs like digs on bikes and kick nnd run into cars.
Stop making excuses you limousine liberal.
Red headed, Irish, Immature kids and young adults do not have to be responsible. Excuse them!
ReplyDeleteWell it didn’t take long for the APD to respond to that problem. Hats off for a job well done.
ReplyDeleteI think I’ll take the wife and kids to downtown Allentown for dinner this weekend.
The bike gangs are a small inconvenience for the luxury of living the good life in Allentown.
ReplyDeleteMy kids can’t wait to graduate from college and get a nice apartment in Rileyville with all the other hip millennials flocking to Century City.
My husband and I are planning to retire to downtown in a few years.
Allentown offers everything we want for our golden years.
This lawlessness must end.
ReplyDeleteBan dirt bikes and ATVs.
It’s The City Without Limits.
ReplyDeleteDrive the Bronx Expressway sometime. Packs of lawless thugs on motorcycles and ATV's weaving in and out of traffic intimidating drivers. God save you if you flip them the bird or show distain. They will surround you and run you off the road. The same thug behavior has shown up in Allentown after those Bronx families moved here. Thankfully, our local law enforcement is taking it seriously. It is a form of terrorism.
ReplyDeleteWondering how many active warrants were served.
ReplyDeleteAllentown is circling the drain.
ReplyDeleteA billion dollars spent couldn’t save it.
I wonder how they spend Independence Day in Danbury Connecticut?
These laws are so racist.
ReplyDeleteBernie @ 0708 July 3. I happen to know if one of them gets struck by a lawfully operated & licensed vehicle obeying all traffic rules the ATV riders & bikers will be charged. That is why I will no get out of their way.
ReplyDeleteThe law requires you to stop , if you can, to avoid a collision. If you don't, you could be in big trouble. I know these kids and young adults are an annoyance, but that's no excuse for hurting someone.
ReplyDeleteThe answer to fixing the gang issue is denied access to shelter. Code Dept needs to do inspections and the landlords need review of apartments. Moving permits are a tool of compliance.. Lack of quality of live issues and public safety are reason to get rid of “deadwood” political perisites on payroll .
ReplyDeleteAre Pawlowski’s thugs still employed in the Code Department?
