Wendy's drive-by in Jamaica


From the Times Ledger:

Three suspected MS 13 members were shot by alleged members of the Latin Kings during a drive-by shooting in the parking lot of a Wendy’s in Jamaica Thursday afternoon, Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said.

“It turns out that apparently it is a dispute between the MS 13 gang and the Latin Kings,” Brown told reporters outside the Wendy’s on Jamaica Avenue near the intersection of Queens Boulevard.

After the shooting, which took place at about 3 p.m., the suspects - who are believed to be members of the Latin Kings - fled in a tan Toyota Corolla with tinted windows northbound on Queens Boulevard, the DA said. Investigators at the scene said there had not yet been any arrests.

“Like in so many different boroughs, we do have a gang problem here,” Brown said. “It’s something that the police are very much on top of.”

Two of the people shot were 20 years old and one was 17, and all three are suspected MS 13 members, the DA said. One person was taken to Jamaica Hospital, while the two others were transported to New York Hospital Queens in Flushing.

Jamaicans had better stay inside their "Estates" compounds.

Outside...it's a jungle.

I wonder what Carlyle Towrey has to say about the "Brown natives" being restless?

At least in Flushing all we have to deal with is filth and stinky air not drive-bys or shoot-outs.

Oriental crime is underground not on the streets.

A former
NYS Assemblyman's comment from 1986:
"Thank God for the Asians. We don't want Flushing to become a south Jamaica".

Flushing and Jamaica are the headquarters for MS-13 activity in New York City.

All involved were gang members. Thanks God no humans were involved. The Latin Kings need to improve their aim. A few kills wouldbe nice this time.

How will Kelly and his mouthpiece Paul Brownie Browne whitewash this one? "Statistically, Jamaica is still the safest large neighborhood in the country."

I thought Bloomberg said there isn't a gang problem in NYC?

No doubt that Bloomie will say that the gang members were illegally transported to New York, along with their guns, from one of those "other" states that have loose gun laws.

The indictment also alleges that several of the defendants used firearms in furtherance of conspiracies to murder rival gang members, as well as others who may have “disrespected” the MS-13 gang. In one charged murder conspiracy, defendant Carlos “Morro” Hernandez was intercepted during a telephone conversation saying, “If you want me to take the shot I want to know who is coming and who is not,” at which point defendant Alex “Negro” Machado assured him that “It will be real quick.” Today, law enforcement officers seized a .38 caliber revolver and a 10” knife and leather sheath from Machado

Those shot in Flushing are not considered "White" so the local "town fathers" don't count them as casualties.

There's very little street crime here in Floo-shing compared to "dark" Jamaica.
