Illegal Tunnel Discovered Under Brooklyn Synagogue Sparks Evacuation
TL;DR
A historic Brooklyn Synagogue complex in Crown Heights was evacuated and partially shut down after members of an ultra-Orthodox group dug a tunnel connecting at least four buildings, leading to city orders to vacate and stabilize the structures. Six young members of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement reportedly dug the tunnel as a means to expand the complex’s footprint, leading to the evacuation and filling of the illicit tunnel.
