NYPD 47 Precinct

The 47th Precinct Community Council held its monthly meeting on June 10, 2026, at Bronx Bethany Church of the Nazarene. During the meeting, Police Officer Signor was recognized as the 47th Precinct's Cop of the Month for recovering a firearm following a successful canvass. His dedication and vigilance continue to make a difference in keeping our community safe.

The meeting was attended by Commanding Officer Deputy Inspector Muhammad J. Ashraf, supervisors from the 47th Precinct Special Operations Unit, community members, and our Community Council as they continued to strengthen the partnership between the precinct and the residents we proudly serve.

Congratulations to PO Signor on this well-deserved recognition.

Midnight Tour officers recovered a loaded firearm during a recent arrest, removing another dangerous weapon from our streets.

The vigilance and professionalism of our Midnight Tour officers remain essential to keeping our communities safe.

While out in the community, our Community Affairs Officer assisted an older adult safely across the street. He did not know the photo was being taken, but it captured a real moment of service, professionalism, and care for the people we serve.

The 47 Precinct Q-Team continues to address quality-of-life concerns and traffic violations throughout the community. During a recent enforcement operation, officers issued 52 summonses and removed 50 vehicles from the roadway through towing enforcement actions.

These efforts help improve public safety, maintain orderly streets, and enhance the quality of life for residents and visitors throughout the precinct.

The 47th Precinct Crime Prevention Officer, along with our Community Affairs Officer, conducted an informative safety presentation and live demonstrations for older adults. The presentation focused on personal safety, crime prevention, and awareness of jewelry scams that may target seniors.

We were also joined by fellow Crime Prevention Officers from commands across the Bronx, who helped reinforce important safety tips and shared ways residents can better protect themselves and their property.

The 47th Precinct extends its sincere appreciation to the PBA for its advocacy and support in honoring Detective Didarul Islam.

Detective Islam began his career in School Safety before becoming a Police Officer, serving this city with dedication, courage, and pride. The Didarul Islam Police Recruitment Act recognizes members who have followed similar career paths, including those who served in School Safety, Traffic, the Cadet Corps, or Corrections before becoming Police Officers.

This legislation stands as a meaningful tribute to Detective Islam’s service, sacrifice, and legacy. We thank the PBA and all who helped make this bill a reality in honor of our fallen brother.

Last night, officers from the 47th Precinct Neighborhood Safety Team and Field Training Unit recovered three illegally possessed fi****ms from our streets. Another step toward reducing gun violence and protecting the 47th Precinct community.

Today, members of the 47th Precinct had the honor of accompanying the family of Detective First Grade Didarul Islam to the Law Enforcement Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Detective Islam was assigned to the 47th Precinct, and his service, sacrifice, and legacy will forever be remembered by his family, his fellow officers, and the community he served.

We will never forget.

Last night, officers assigned to the 47th Precinct Neighborhood Safety Team and Field Training Unit recovered two illegally possessed fi****ms from our streets.

These recoveries reflect our continued work to reduce gun violence, protect our neighborhoods, and improve quality of life for the 47th Precinct community.

The 47th Precinct remains committed to keeping dangerous weapons off our streets and holding offenders accountable.

Our Day Tour Q Team here at the 47th Precinct assisted TED during a large-scale quality-of-life enforcement operation focused on ongoing community concerns and roadway conditions.

The operation resulted in:
• 169 summonses issued
• 24 vehicles towed
• 12 RVs towed

These proactive enforcement efforts help improve safety, accessibility, and overall quality of life throughout the community. Thank you to all involved for their continued dedication and professionalism.
