Bay Ridge Avenue Shooting? Photo Five of Five

Third Avenue and 69th Street. There were two helicopters-one, stationary, stood up at about Fifth Avenue and Senator Streets. The other, at a lower elevation circled the immediate neighborhood. At about 1110pm it left the area.

There should definitely be something about this in the papers tomorrow morning.

I haven't seen this on the news this morning, or in any papers, any idea why?

The steam pipe explosion seems to be the only story.

Because it isn't news-worthy, the media and sharpton didn't have a chance to accuse the police of a wrong doing. The media was busy in NYC hoping for more explosions and sharpton was looking for a bakery.

did the police do the shooting? Anyone have an update on the story? Who cares about Sharpton, the fact is, if a kid was killed, someone should investigate to ensure protocol was followed. And even if Sharpton or someone questions it, at least someone is ensuring people don't abuse their power. That's democracy, checks and balances, it's what makes us a great country.

The NYC news media TOTALLY botched this fairly major story

Can't believe that Channel 2 did not cover it, when their guy was right there

But yes the steam explosion was a factor--but this should have at least been mentioned

See, you can always trust the Bay Ridge Blog--all the news I feel like printing, when I get around to it!!

OK, I finally got the facts. sharpton was not looking for a bakery, but he was hungry, perhaps a late nightpizzeria would have satisfied him.

What about coverage by the local newspapers (i.e, Courier, Brooklyn Papers, Spectator)? I'm guessing that they will have something. Does anyone know? Because I'd like to get any issue that covers it.

The rumors are still flying. Kid kills parents. Kid kills other kid. Cops kill kid. What really happened?

Thanks.

something is definately up. It was a very big deal and when i asked the police the next morning, the officer denied it ever happeneing. Also i think it has something to do with the 68th precient covering something up. I havent seen it in any papers or on any news channel. somethings fishy.

Send it to FOX (national), via email, they have several POCs on their website. If written well, they'll get nosy.

Kid (19?-20? not sure) shot at his father. Can't say whether or not the father was hit. The shooter later committed suicide. This family has several boys and at least a few have been in serious trouble with the law.

anyone got any news on the okelly incident? I understand he was brutally beaten before they stabbed him. Anyone have any idea who would want to do this to him?

Yesterday (July 25) saw a carload of undercover cops at Senator St. & 3rd Ave. Don't know if that means anything or not.

In the past month, there's been a lot going on in the Ridge. First the rape of the off-duty policewoman, followed by the massive police raid at 69th & 3rd, and then the vicious beating and stabbing of a local realtor in his home by some young thugs.

To many residents there seems to be a growing list of crimes to be solved. Have any suspects been apprehended yet?

It seems everyone on this page has the wrong story. The young man you all are talking about happens to be my brother and had you got to know him he was and innocent boy who was a victim of police brutality on more then one occasion, one of which was on fox five news where he was pushed off of a roof, his lawsuit is still on going process, another where he was beat in front of his little brother while his parents were not home. To the misinformed low life who made false accusations.No he did not shoot at his father "but that was funny I needed the laugh" He shot once into a door not trying to harm anyone and later "supposedly" committed suicide, its still uncertain there was a lot of reason to believe something fishy had happened. As far as the several boys in trouble with the law...no there are 3 boys and 1 of us was in trouble with the law. Oh yeah and he was 20 years old.
