Anyone else hear the police helicopters?

I'm on St. Johns and Nostrand and they're pretty much right over my freakin' head.

I was wondering the same thing. I'm on St John's and New York and have been watching it fly around with its light on for a little bit now. Anyone over there have a good view or some insight?

After my first post, my roommate and I were looking out her window and saw a woman running down our block towards Nostrand screaming. Another woman shortly followed. I don't know if they were just panicked in general or if they are part of the story - whatever it is.

Subject: some one just called us from their van

our friend is moving and called us just 10 minutes ago and said he saw a large group of people and the swat team gathered on st john's place as well as a helicopter flying low over head with a light aimed at the street

It's a perp search according to the Gothamist newsmap.

I heard the helicopter, I don't understand these criminals they see the sky thingy and they still do what ever they want.... lately I am so disgusted with the new activities that I have finally witness with my own EYES.
