A round-up of recent crime in the area:

A 52-year-old man wound up in the hospital after being attacked by a stranger late at night on Cumberland Walk near Park Avenue. At 11:50 p.m. on March 21, the victim was hit in the face multiple times with an unknown object. The victim was brought to Brooklyn Hospital to be treated for his injuries, which included a bloody nose. 

At 3 p.m. on April 3, friends came to blows at the Tillary Street Women's Shelter at 200 Tillary St. when a woman hit her 18-year-old female friend with a sock that had a padlock inside it. EMS brought the victim, who suffered from swelling and a cut to the back of the head, to Brooklyn Hospital. Police arrested Na-Ashlie Wright, 21, in connection to the incident. 

A 29-year-old man chose the wrong security guard to mess with late one night at the Touche NYC nightclub located at 46 Washington Ave. At 3:08 a.m. on April 6, a 24-year-old man working as security for the club attempted to escort Quasheen Bent outside because he was allegedly acting disorderly. Bent then allegedly picked up a pole that was holding security straps and swung it at the security guard, cutting the guard's left hand. The security guard, an off-duty NYPD Auxiliary officer, was able to subdue Bent and handcuff him.
