After recieving a bunch of calls inquiring about the massive police movement yesterday [Wednesday] at around 7:20pm, here is clarification as to what has happened. Nearly every police officer in the 71st precincts district responded to a call of shots fired, leaving very few squad cars parked at the station.
An officer patroling on foot called in an incident of shots being fired on Winthrop & E. 94th St. and following this report the dispatcher was unable to get back in touch with the unit. The dispatcher immediately classified it as an officer unaccounted for, sparking this huge response to make sure the officer was ok.
It took some time but all the officers that were on foot were accounted for, and thank G-D no Police Officer was hurt, but the original call for the shots fired was accurate, a man was shot and police continued to look for the shooter.
