4 dead 12 injured in New York separate shootings
No fewer than four people, including a 16-year-old, have been killed, with at least 12 others wounded in a separate shooting incidents that rocked the New York City on Monday.
In the latest violent spree of shootings, a 56-year-old man was found dead in the Bronx.
According to police investigators, the man was identified as Kevin Roberts, with multiple gunshot wounds outside of an apartment building on Simpson Street in the Longwood section of the Bronx at around 11 p.m.
Eyewitness News reported that no arrests have been made.
The victim is one of four killed over the bullet-riddled weekend.
Among those victims was a 16-year-old, who was shot and killed in the Bedford Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn. It happened while the teen was standing across the street from where he lived on Marcus Garvey Boulevard just before 6 p.m. Monday.
The motive of the shooting is unknown, and police are looking into whether the 16-year-old was the intended target. Police have made no arrests.
It happened while the teen was standing across the street from where he lived on Marcus Garvey Boulevard just before 6 p.m. Monday. Anthony Carlo has the details.
In the Bronx, there was another deadly shooting that claimed the life of a 27-year-old, who was fatally struck around 2:30 p.m. Officials found the victim on Longfellow Avenue in the Longwood section with a gunshot wound to the head.
“I just ran to him, just dropped everything applied pressure to his neck, and I was just talking to him,” a neighbor of the victim told Eyewitness News.
The circumstances surrounding the shooting are unknown. An arrest has yet to be made.
It happened just before 2:30 p.m. Monday on Longfellow Avenue in the Longwood section.
Over in Manhattan, three people were also shot, and one was pronounced dead at the hospital. No arrests have been made.
Gunfire also ripped through Staten Island, where two people were shot near Victory Boulevard and S Greenleaf Ave Monday evening. Those victims, an 18-year-old male and 19-year-old female, are expected to survive. The suspects are described as four males who fled the scene in a vehicle.
An investigation into each of these separate incidents is ongoing, with the NYPD investigating exactly what led up to them.
1) The level of violence is simply unacceptable. Reports every weekend of 50-60 people shot and 10+ killed is getting tiring to process and detracts from Chicago’s many great features. If you’re a victim, it’s life changing and horrific.
2) As Mayor Johnson said, no one can single-handedly fix anything, but we can start by filling the approximately 1,500 police vacancies as suggested by Gov Pritzker recently (link: https://fox32chicago.com/flannery-fired-up/flannery-fired-up-pritzker-urges-action-chicago-police-department-struggles-officer-exodus.amp).
3) I don’t doubt Mayor Johnson’s sincerity or motivations. But a weakness with his approach is that the city’s economic base will erode faster than he can make the types of meaningful investments he is calling for. And that will deprive the city of funding to make the kind of long term impacts he has in mind. It’s not so much a matter of priorities - there’s nothing controversial about wanting to see investment and opportunity spread across the city - but it’s a matter of their order of implementation. No organic investment is coming until businesses feel safe to operate. Public safety always has to be priority #1.
4) As a parent, I just would add that everything starts with a good foundation at home. Absent that, you get a lot of problems. It’s tragic for kids who don’t have this and I’m frankly not sure what the optimal approach is to giving kids a more stable life at home.
5) Guns held by violent people are a huge problem. We hear our local politicians discuss tighter gun laws all the time. I mostly agree, but that’s close to meaningless if we aren’t serious about arresting, prosecuting and holding accountable those who use guns to commit crimes. We are far too lenient in the local criminal justice system around gun-related crime.
6) Regarding the Mayor’s comment that getting ourselves out of this rut is going to take all of us - something he’s repeated in one form or another on many occasions. My response is: Why do honest, law abiding and hard working residents have to help solve this current problem if they haven’t contributed to its cause? I’m not saying that to be a jerk, or selfish or inconsiderate, but it’s a sincere question. We delegate solving these kinds of broader issues to government and those who work professionally in these areas - from police to educators to social workers - to make a difference. A lot of us here pay an exorbitant amount in local taxes, work hard to be productive members of our community and professional fields, and work even harder to be good parents. No offense to anyone, but I didn’t sign up to be a social worker - nor do I have the skills to make a difference in that area. Raising my kids right, contributing to the economy in the way I’m skilled at, paying all my city taxes and fees, following the law, being a good friend and neighbor - even advocating for sane public safety and economic/fiscal policy on here - are all a pretty decent contribution to the city’s civic fabric. Feel free to disagree, but I certainly think that’s doing my part.
7) If we don’t fix these public safety issues soon, people who can leave the city eventually will. My family actually likes living in Chicago. I really love my neighborhood and house, and living in the city had lots of positives. But if our family’s safety becomes questionable, we’re just not going to tolerate that risk. While moving would be a royal and disruptive pain, we could do it if we needed to. I’m nothing special, but if you multiply my family by a big number, the city will end up with even worse problems as the professional base and tax base hollow out.

"The shooting is no surprise considering Democrat city leadership has failed to enforce law and order. The out-of-control crime is so bad that notable trading desks in the Inner Harbor area have told us they're actively seeking to relocate because of violent crime."
