Homicide on Park btw. Classon and Franklin?

Was just tooling around on gothamist and saw there was a homicide on Park tonight. Any details?

Hrm. 10:05pm.

That's roughly concurrent with Cool The Kid's post about screaming to the south of him.

IIRC, Park Place near Classon would be to the south of him.

Wonder if these two posts refer to the same incident.

uh. freaky.

when I was on my way home, by way of thriftway pharm on washington, there was a 77th pct car totally slow rolling along washington between st. johns and sterling, rolling toward sterling. wigged me to a degree, since that's kinda where I live, but also made me feel like there were cops At Work.

saw both NBC and ABC news vans with their satellite things up this afternoon on Park btwn Classon and Franklin. I guess there will be a story on the news this evening.
