Too Dumb for a Gun: Man Arrested for Bronx Hospital Shooting

Image
Ok. How do I put this for best effect?  A man who opened fire in a Bronx emergency room striking another was arrested last night about 12 hours after the incident. The suspect, Keber Martinez was charged with attempted murder, assault and weapons after he shot another waiting for medical treatment at Jacobi Hospital.  Apparently, Martinez walked into the waiting room, recognized the victim and opened fire hitting him in the arm while dozens of medical staff, patient's and family members scattered. Cops remarked that catching the Mr. Martinez was like shooting fish in a barrel (no pun intended) as Mr. Martinez was not only videotaped in commission of the act but also HAD SIGNED IN USING HIS REAL NAME FOR TREATMENT OF ASTHMA! You really can't make this stuff up.

NYPD: Subway "Shovings" May Be an Initiation Right by City's Gangs

Image
Police in New York City are perplexed by a rash of subway "shovings" (people shoved to the tracks in front of oncoming trains) over the past several months. Today another incident occurred where a man was shoved to the tracks in Lower Manhattan. Fortunately, the motorman was able to stop the train in time allowing the victim to scramble back up on the platform and escape serious injury. Many point to the homeless, especially the hoard of lunatics that have made the subway a sort of subterranean asylum, apparently able to run amuck freely without fear of being nabbed by authorities. Now I ride the subways daily and I can tell you it's scarier now than the mid 70's when the life expectancy of a subway rider was years less than a non-rider. At every stop there is at least one demented soul to be seen screaming, yelling, threatening so forth. I will only ride the front or the middle car where the motorman and conductor sit (not that I'm expecting them to intervene, bu...
