Shots, Helicopters Heard in Boerum Hill Friday Afternoon
A Brownstoner tipster tells us she heard what sounded like gunfire around Smith and Warren just before 4 p.m. this afternoon. Shortly after, she saw a man running down the street yelling about a gun and heard sirens. Another resident reported hearing helicopters in the area around the same time. Does anyone have more information about what happened?…

Spoke with a police officer in the neighborhood last night. Apparently, two shots were fired and the gun malfunctioned. The weapon was confiscated and the shooter retained.

I can’t believe that more people didn’t see this coming when they voted for the soft-on-crime crowd.
Smith and Warren has never been a good corner. Never.
OK. Not that I’m a fan of De Blasio, but your theory is inane. In about 2 minutes I found another shooting on Warren in Boerum Hill from Bloomberg days (http://www.brownstoner.com/blog/2009/11/shooting-in-boe/).
Clearly this is the fault of Ban Ki-moon, the secretary-general of the United Nations.
