A Harlem fishmonger left battered during a fatal melee over shrimp at a Manhattan fish market, said the ugly episode could have been avoided.
“I saw what he was doing. He was stealing. If he wasn’t stealing, nothing would have happened,” injured worker Francisco Morales told The Post of the man accused of trying to rob the store.
Morales, 38, was hurt during Tuesday’s chaos at the Fish Express Fish Mart, when Robert “Bobby” Burrell, and his brother, Malik, allegedly entered the store to steal shrimp and began assaulting him.
Another worker, Junior Hernandez, intervened and ultimately stabbed the Burrell brothers, killing the 25-year-old Malik,..

Hernandez was initially charged with murder, but the charges were quickly reduced to assault. The move mirrors the case of bodega worker Jose Alba, who fatally stabbed an ex-con attacking him in Hamilton Heights in July and was initially charged with murder.
Bobby Burrell, 29, who was injured when Hernandez came to Morales’ aid, was charged with felony burglary and arraigned in his bed at Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan Friday. He was released shortly thereafter

Speaking to the media is a terrible idea on any day, but especially during a situation like this.
Saw that at a sushi place in Ft Lauderdale once, the Heart Rock Cafe.
A large group of large Amish women, office workers by the look, came in, made substitutions, changed their orders repeatedly, sent stuff back and were noisy, demanding, pains.
The manager or owner, an Asian woman, locked the door and let people in/out one at a time, no dine and dash that time.
Of course, no tips were left.
Back in the 1990's, a programming group I worked in had a black female. When we went out to restaurants for group outings, she consistently shorted us on the tab, saying she never pays for tips. That lasted for a few outings, and the rest of us soon dropped her from joining the rest of us. No one liked being around her, with her cheap attitude. I worked with other blacks in other jobs and they weren't like that.
Send them back to Publik Skool and contact Mayor Adams directly. New York has a problem!
Hahahahaha...I suspect there is a “boink” sound in the next frame of that graphic.
Nice. Funny, yet truthful. I’m conflicted since I don’t if it’s better to laugh or cry at that.
Most humor has roots in reality, so I think it is acceptable to both laugh and cry at that, IMO.
I think I see a problem
