the Q at Parkside: Spitter Strikes Again?

The Q at Parkside

(for those for whom the Parkside Q is their hometrain)

News and Nonsense from the Brooklyn neighborhood of Lefferts and environs, or more specifically a neighborhood once known as Melrose Park. Sometimes called Lefferts Gardens. Or Prospect-Lefferts Gardens. Or PLG. Or North Flatbush. Or Caledonia (west of Ocean). Or West Pigtown. Across From Park Slope. Under Crown Heights. Near Drummer's Grove. The Side of the Park With the McDonalds. Jackie Robinson Town. Home of Lefferts Manor. West Wingate. Near Kings County Hospital. Or if you're coming from the airport in taxi, maybe just Flatbush is best.

Spitter Strikes Again?

The Spitter of Lefferts, or perhaps a copycat, took Blessings hostage this morning. After sloppily kissing a customer, he then attempted to spit on the cook.

What the hell? Cops were slow to respond, said patrons. A description, given by a solid witness, was such:

Age= 25-35

Skin color: Medium brown
No discernible accent
Full Beard (shaved down)

Height: 5''7 -6

Weight 185-200 LB

Wearing: solid blue hat & non descriptive dark clothes.

Since I don't have a picture of the guy to share...

Here's a picture of the late '90s rock band from Memphis called Saliva:

Where are they now? Flatbush, perhaps?

If you're coming late to the spitter saga, here's some background from the NY Post.
