October is domestic violence month.

The guest speakers for the evening were Keyri Chicas and Elizabeth Gillespi from the Suffolk County Police domestic violence bureau.

Elder abuse and animal cruelty are also issues that was also discussed.

They explained the various orders of protection that are available to victims of domestic violence.

It was a very informative presentation.

There have been several smash and grab (burglary) incidents. Working together with the 3^rd precinct an arrest was made.
