Residents along Rhinlander Avenue in Morris Park are on the look out for a man with an axe, after the still-unknown assailant chopped down a recently planted tree.

Residents say they first thought it was done by Con Edison, who had been working in the area, but now believe it is a young man with emotional problems who lives in the area.

Residents were particularly concerned because the incident dealt with an axe and the targeted tree was across the street from St. Clare of Assisi School.

Anyone with information related to this incident is asked to call the NYPD‘s Crime Stoppers hotline at 1800577TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 188857PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers’ website or by texting their tips to 274637 (CRIMES) then enter TIP577.

All tips will be kept strictly confidential.
