News Helicopters were making their presents known over Crown Heights Friday morning after an early morning shooting by a person barricaded in an apartment. He was apparently wanted on federal murder charges for his alleged role in a previous Queens homicide.
The incident occurred on Maple St near Nostrand Ave at around 5:30am. The man barricaded himself inside his apartment, and attempted to shoot at police and FBI officers.
The NYPD called in its bullet proof vehicle and Emergency Services Unit, who succeeded in getting into the apartment through a window. Soon after, they reported taking the shooter into custody.
There were no reports of injuries in the incident.

no need to worry comrade de blasio says crime is falling
Umm
Data says they’re falling

Sure, if incidents aren’t being recorded, or are being recorded wrongly, then the data will show that crime is falling. In other words, garbage in – garbage out.
Umm
Do you have any evidence that data wasn’t recorded properly?

JUST RELAX because this is to be expected in an up and coming neighborhood …
Thank you, FBI
I live ONE block away and was awakened by the helicopters, which hovered for what felt like hours that morning. I was very concerned, but of course had no way of knowing why the helicopters were there. (I’m glad I didn’t need to go out at that hour!)
THANK YOU, FBI, for “getting your man,” and for doing all you can to keep the rest of us safe!!!!
PS to CH.info: Pls. remember the difference between “presents” and “presence”! You used the former when you should have used the latter, above.
