NYPD Officer In Plainclothes Shoots At Dogs, Hits Bystander On The Leg

Conflicting reports are emerging about an NYPD shooting at 68 Himrod Street in Bushwick this morning. What seems generally established so far is that a man was shot in the leg as officers were trying to fend off two allegedly charging pitbulls during a drug bust. According to the Post, the victim is a 17-year-old who was an innocent bystander shot by mistake, but a spokesman for the NYPD press office told us he believes the victim is an adult. (The NYPD would not provide any official information at this time.)

One local resident tells the Post the dogs belong to the victim, who goes by the name “Homie.” This witness tells the tabloid, “I was watching [the] movie ‘007’ and I heard three shots. I thought it was from the movie. So I went to the window and I saw him laying there in the street screaming. He was bleeding from his leg. He was screaming “why me I got nothing, I got nothing.’ ” The victim is currently in stable condition at Kings County Hospital and expected to survive.

Other neighbors tell DNAinfo the 22-year-old victim, who lives next door to the crime scene, had been walking toward the house when the shooting occurred, and that the dogs were not loose, but tied securely in the yard. NY1 confirms it was a drug bust, and witnesses tell DNAinfo plainclothes officers pulled up to the location in a black SUV, and burst out with guns drawn. “They just jumped out, they didn’t announce themselves, they were in regular clothes and they just started shooting,” Raymone Beamon, 31, says. “My first response was ‘I’m calling the cops,’ thinking that they were regular perpetrators or some thugs.”

Beamon also says the unidentified victim was unarmed. Sources tell the Daily News that when police moved in to do the bust, a suspected drug dealer “unleashed one of the dogs and one of the officers opened fire.” And yet another neighbor tells the Post that one of the dogs is not a pit bull, but rather “a black dog [that] has bit six people already.”

Did anyone else see this BMW commercial during the Olympics last night and think it was pretty racist to have the white man come in and steal from the black family as soon as they appear to be well off?

Our sudden musical appearance in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior with the song “Mother of God, Drive Putin Out” violated the integrity of this media image, generated and maintained by the authorities for so long, and revealed its falsity.

Captain George Walling was assigned to carry out one of the warrants. He arrived at City Hall by himself and was allowed to speak with Mayor Wood in his private office. Explaining the purpose of his visit, Wood refused to accompany Walling who then attempted to take him out of the building by force. With over 300 Municipal officers stationed at City Hall, Walling was stopped before he could take the Mayor out of the his office and was then thrown out into the street. He remained at City Hall, attempting several times to reenter the building, arguing with Captain Abraham Ackerman until the arrival of Captain Jacob Sebring and Coroner Perry with a 50-man Metropolitan detachment to serve the second warrant.[1][2]

Instantly the Municipals charged out of the building and, for over a half hour, the police fought on the steps and in the corridors of City Hall. The Metropolitans were eventually forced from the building and fled in a disorganized retreat. Both sides had suffered 53 men injured including one officer from the Seventeenth Precinct, a Patrolman Crofut, whose injuries resulting in his becoming an invalid. The wounded Metropolitans were brought to the office of Recorder James M. Smith and treated by physicians while Mayor Wood and his supporters celebrated their victory barricaded in his private office
