It was also close to the World Trade Center, a mosque, a church, a homeless shelter, the projects, a police holding area, about 60 delis, and literally every type of structure or organization under the sun. It’s sickening and unnerving for sure (I work a literal block from where the time square pedestrian thing happened) but in a city this dense you can’t jaywalk without being close to a school. Really doubt it’s related - but that’s not to suggest that makes it any less tragic.

It seems the only shots were fired by law enforcement; the perp didn’t use real guns

No surprise there.

Huh. Two stories I read early on said shots fired from the truck. Such things develop quickly though.

What the hell? Attempted suicide by cop?

I’m sure, I know nothing of the area. That’s just all that was mentioned in the quick articles I saw right off the bat, wasn’t sure if the school was an intended target or not. Thanks.

NYPD isn’t training their officers the “unload your entire magazine into the suspect” strategy? Crazy.

Tell me about it ... now they’re saying guy might have been targeting a school bus w/ 3 kids on it.

Watching live.

Supposedly the guy drove a rented Home Depot truck eight blocks down a bike lane, then rammed a school bus. Perp came out of the truck screaming in Arabic (take that  with a grain of salt) and holding two guns, one paintball, one BB. NYPD shot him twice, then took him into custody. Officials aren’t confirming casualties, but local media is saying 7 dead, 9 injured.

She’s fine - just wish she was faster returning texts.

Glad to hear, I’ll bet she’s stressed too. Can’t imagine being so close to that.

I work three blocks away, but work from home on Tuesdays.

I use that bike path often, so it’s hitting a little too close to home.

Wow... can’t imagine how that feels, sorry. Steve in Manhattan said his wife works nearby too. Glad you’re home safe.

Not with terrorism related stuff they aren’t. Hard to interrogate a corpse.

My service manager at Mercedes:

“ that’s what happens in a damn liberal state where they don’t have guns”

Yeah, there are no guns in New York. The fuck? That’s his first take? What a defective dumbass.

I figure they imagine themselves in that situation, with their handgun by their side like a cowboy. They spot any POC and watch them closely. As soon as the truck pulled into that bike trail, they swing into action and head shot the guy before anyone was harmed. Trump gives them a metal and their tiny boner is forever very faintly erect
