NYU Student's Suicide Note Found

Allegedly the NYPD was investigating Andrew Williamson-Noble's death at NYU's Bobst Library early yesterday morning as a possible homicide, until they discovered a suicide note in his dorm room. While his final words should remain private, the Daily News has apparently done some digging into his personal life.

To Catch a Pooper-trator

Spotted on Mott between Spring and Prince: a passive-aggressive note to a mysterious anti-pooper scooper! We just can't help but think this note could have been written better, though. It currently reads: "To person whose dog has taken a shit twice this week and you didn't pick it up. I'll be watching. If I catch you it won't go well for you." The threatening tone is there, but it doesn't seem to have that certain... je ne sais quoi. Next time maybe just try to sick the Sanitation Department on the Pooper-trator.

More On Post Office Killer's Suicide

Two families are reacting to the apparent suicide of the man suspected of fatally stabbing another person in Midtown. Army veteran Sir'mone McCaulla, found dead in a Philadelphia apartment yesterday, left a suicide note trying to explain his tragic altercation with Christopher Gutierrez.

Water Thief on the Loose in Williamsburg

Doesn't everyone in Williamsburg know that drinking out of a plastic water bottle (or a dated Sigg bottle) will lead to certain death*? One water consumer ordered a case of Poland Spring to the mailroom recently (is this something that people do?), only to have it stolen. The bisphenol-A has clearly gone to their head, as they skipped right over passive-aggressive and penned an aggressive-aggressive note to the thief, wishing them to choke. A ransom note, declaring the water was "fine," was posted in reply. One tenant in the building says, "This goes a long way to explaining my love/hate relationship with my neighbors."

Ever wish your favorite bar would stay open til sunrise? The NY Times retells the tale of one young pioneer who braved his favorite watering hole through the witching hours all alone, as the staff went home and the doors were locked up. Kyle Hausmann, a 24-year-old Harvard graduate, went to Trophy Bar in Williamsburg on May 20th -- smart enough for the Ivy League, sure, but drunk enough to find himself locked in the establishment with no escape plan. The young lad was in the bathroom ("for reasons that are unclear even to him, he stayed in there for quite a while") when the bar was locked up.
