The link says nothing about an arrest. Do you have more details?

Sorry about that. I think they changed the story after I linked to it. :oops:

No problem. Hopefully they'll catch whoever it was.

Someone just posted this NYT article on the story in another thread:

Ugh, that is really sickening. It's like, if you're going to murder someone, please at least make sure you just shoot that one guy. This guy seems like he was spraying bullets all over the place. I hope they catch him.

I thought the same thing myself. I mean it's incredibly inconsiderate and rude of the shooter to not announce the fact that he was going to shoot the drug dealer and ask others to please get out of the way.

If they do catch him he should get an extra 5 year for poor manners.

from the NYTimes article:

Through Aug. 13, six murders were recorded this year in the 88th Precinct, which includes Fort Greene, compared with none in the same period last year.

that doesn't sound good.
