Police seek Springfield Gardens party shooter


From NBC 4:

Police are asking for helping identifying a man wanted for questioning in connection with the shooting of six people at a party over the weekend.

The suspect, as seen in this police sketch, is described as a black male, 20-25 years of age, approximately 5'8" tall, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and dark pants.

One person was killed and five others injured when shots rang out during a junior high school reunion party in Queens early Sunday morning.

The mayhem erupted around 2:15 a.m. outside a Springfield Gardens home on 182nd Street and 145th Drive . About 200 people were attending the IS 238-grad party, which then became a larger block party, police sources said.

It's unclear when the violence erupted, but a 20-year-old man identified as Dane Freeman was found dead on a sidewalk with a gunshot wound to his head, police said. Freeman was from Cambria Heights, police said.

The five wounded include two men, ages 25 and 21, who were each shot in the leg; a 23-year-old man who was shot in back; a 22-year-old woman shot in the shoulder; and a 21-year-old woman who was shot in both hands. All five of them are in stable condition.

There have been no arrests, and the investigation is ongoing.

I'm sure this is somehow Bush's fault.

BTW, is anyone as sick of the term 'haters' as much as I am?

I don't get it. A party is going on that can be heard, according to one resident, blocks away?

Don't the patrolling cops have decibel meters in their squad cars? Can you imagine listening to this Sound Toilet living next to these inconsiderate cretins?

A party of that magnitude does not belong in the neighborhood. It belongs in a catering hall.

why isn't the local precinct doing anything about sound levels at these pay to attend parties?
it's obvious that they are money making events for the promoters. didn't anyone at all complain about the horrific noise?

Sound meters....there are people all over the street drinking, being LOUD,etc. the cops just go the other way! If they show up with significant numbers to handle this situation, then they are demonized in the press and in the community.Thank sean bell for the demise of proactive policing.You got what you wanted.The police will come in after the fact,take a report and pick up the bodies.....

georgetheatheist said...

Bingo. It's the legacy of Sean Bell. The cops are damned if they do and damned if they don't. Will they demand a street naming for someone killed by their own kind?

Proactive policing? When the hell was the last time that occurred?

For all of those that don't know a thing, you all need to shut your mouth. Regardless, the fact it was a black on black crime, or even a white on white crime someone is dead whether or not he was innocent or guilty. Imagine one of your family members going out to a party and couple hours later you hear on the news he or she is dead How would that make you feel? One can have a reunion for any "Level of education completed." That is my friend that is dead and you all seem like the one's with a lack of education. Maybe no one close for you all have passed so you don't know how it feels. But, one day your time will come and I wish you all the best in the end. R.I.P D.A.F
