Lock your doors, put on that bulletproof vest..There's a gunman on the loose:

(WABC-TV): A gunman in a car opened fire on a truck on a busy Brooklyn street Thursday morning, causing the motorist to veer off the road and into a tree.
Police say at least three people inside the truck were injured in the collision, but no one else was hurt.
One woman was taken to Kings County Hospital with bumps and bruises.
It happened around 10:30 a.m.
NYPD sources tell Eyewitness News that at least eight shots were fired, but no one was struck. They say the gunman escaped and remains at-large.
The shooting took place on Rogers Avenue in Crown Heights, just south of the intersection with Eastern Parkway.
The location is only a matter of blocks from the famed Brooklyn Museum and the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens.

    Oiseau, I don't expect that.

    I saw the blue SUV on Eastern PKWY yesterday. It was scary. I just thought it was a wreck.
    Later my husband saw six men being arrested on rogers and Lincoln. Not sure if the two were related. Anyone know?

    Damn! At least 8 shots fired but no one struck. That guy was either a really good shot or a really bad shot.
