Illegal Bedford Ave street vendor calls cops on illegal Bedford Ave street vendors

Longtime Bedford Avenue street vendor Ann Tivorsky (pictured on the right) called the cops to report illegal street vendors operating in the Times Square of Williamsburg aka Bedford Ave. Unfortunately for Ann, when the cops arrived they realized that she was not following the rules herself. From DNA info:

In addition to the illegal vending, police found that Tivorsky was breaking the rules by stringing her goods up to an adjacent property and using more than one table, Rose said.

Tivorsky, who said she had permission to string her wares up to the neighboring retail space, said she understood that some people would be upset with her for calling the police. But she said she thinks others in the community have also complained to police about the congestion on the avenue.

“If they’re using me as a scapegoat that’s just fine,” said Tivorsky, who’s now set up around the corner from her old spot on North 7th Street. “My shoulders are wide enough.”

Whoops!
