i agree that this man is a hazard to traffic. he came up to the driver's side window and harassed us until the light changed. besides being a traffic issue, this man is harassing people. please help.

David, Mayor's Office assigned this issue to Albany Police Department Administrator

I've called the non-emergency number several times about this unsafe situation. If this isn't 'aggressive panhandling', I don't know what is.

THIS JUST NEEDS TO STOP!
THE CITY OF ALBANY NEED TO PUT AN END TO ALL PANHANDLING.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH !

I THINK MOST OF THE PEOPLE THAT ARE PANHANDLING ARE NOT HOMELESS!

There was a new station that did a story once and followed a group of people that were panhandling when they were leaving and actually went to their home and ask them why are you holding up signs saying you’re homeless when you’re actually not and they close the door in the news reporters face

ALBANY FIX THE PROBLEM

Still an on going problem
Weekends can be the Worst

For issues of this nature when the incident is in progress please call the Albany Police Department at 518-438-4000 so we may serve you better.
