On Friday eve, Underhill/Prospect-ish was closed with backhoes digging I think. Dunno if that is relevant. Maybe the work is moving down Underhill as per your other post.
-
nope, that's not it. no street work down here.
-
It looks like it could have been a homicide. From Gothamist:
BROOKLYN: *SERIOUS ASSAULT* (77 PCT) UNDERHILL AVE & PROSPECT PL, AIDED ASSAULTED BY A GROUP OF MALES IN TRAUMATIC ARREST, ESU ENRT,

I asked my buddy on the NYPD if there was record of a homicide ...
Looks like there was a big fight front of 12 Underhill Ave. Two people were stabbed and one was hit in the head with a hammer. No one died from the incident as far as the latest report. It's possible that one could have died later in the hospital.

any news links so far?

Armchair, et al, this seems to match:

Five wounded
A crew of thugs sparked a bloody early morning brawl on Underhill Avenue on Feb. 6 — a fight that landed five men in the hospital.
Witnesses said an argument broke out between two groups inside Club Status on Atlantic Avenue between Underhill and Vanderbilt avenues at 4:25 am.
The fight spilled outside and quickly turned bloody when one of the combatants pulled a knife and jammed it into his 28-year-old opponent’s groin. Another man, 20, was stabbed in the chest and arm.
The remaining victims included a 28-year-old who suffered a broken jaw and a fourth man who was struck in the head with a hammer. The fifth victim was clobbered with a parking cone — then hit by a passing car when he fell into the street, stunned witnesses told police.

Deep in the animal part of my brain I can imagine carrying a knife... but who brings a hammer to a club? A carpenter?
-
Man, that club is the worst. There are always fights and if not fights just general mean mugging and bad vibes. Personally, I go out to have fun. I can not understand this younger generation and their ways. Also the fights can be over the dumbest most trivial things like you looked at my girl or whatever. WTF!
Howdy, Stranger!
