More reader reports are coming in about East Village businesses broken into last night... Ben & Jerry's on St. Mark's Place between Second Avenue and Third Avenue took a hit... EVG reader Lola Saénz took these photos...
An ATM on the block was also cleaned out...
There are more reader reports of break-ins, including the Domino's on 14th Street and the Target on 14th and A.

Curfew extended until June 7. Time to revoke the Sullivan Act.
The whole neighborhood is being looted and wrecked. I never thought I would say it but I am now quite happy that the real estate developers gentrified me out of the East Village a long time ago. Wonder how those real estate building investments are going to go now ?
EV Grieve,
I would like to help local businesses clean up. Is there any information regarding who needs help or how to help?
The developers arent going to be the ones suffering. Long term residents who have managed to hold onto their homes here despite the odds will though. I am afraid that we will see a new wave of opportunistic gentrification in the coming year.
