NYPD officers are searching for an attacker who opened fired in gun-free Times Square around 7 p.m. Thursday night.
ABC News reported that the suspect first shot at a security guard in JD Sports, after the guard stopped he and two others for suspicion of shoplifting.
The shot missed the guard and hit a tourist from Brazil, wounding her in the leg.
The suspect then fled the store, but fired two more shots at an officer who was pursuing him.
This is the individual who displayed a firearm and shot at security, striking an innocent bystander. While fleeing, he also fired at an NYPD Police Officer. There is a reward of up to $10,000. Any info, DM or call @NYPDTips at 1-800-577-TIPS. All calls are confidential. https://t.co/y76hYbZIVQ pic.twitter.com/vhIrm9hFB8

Impossible, it was a gun free zone, no one can fire a gun there.
“Gun Free Zone” signs need to be in 68 languages. Then we’ll see peace and tranquility for all!!!
The perp likely was illiterate.
She got a real bite of the Big Apple eh?
Sounds like one of da boyz in the Diverity Strength Gang and Boyz Club.
Where the police unarmed?
What shocking behavior! He actually DISPLAYED a firearm in addition to shooting it? I am speechless.
My three takeaways from this article:
1. You probably don’t want to be a security guard in New York City.
2. You probably don’t want to be a tourist in New York City.
3. Gun-free zones don’t work, anywhere.
The “Gun Free Zones” sign now have little footnotes at the bottom.
“This applies to white people only...”
Are they searching for him so he could be part of the Hochul administration’s gun ban group?
He certainly looked like one of those new gangs composed of illegals sent to rob stores.
Assuming the shooter can read.
Didn’t he get the memo? It’s ‘a gun free zone’.
Still probably safer in NYC than in Rio de Janiero or Sao Paolo. Salvador is the most violent city in Brazil at 56 murders per 100,000
New York is still below 10, but rising
its another reason why we need to shut the border - to keep the S. American criminals out
Can’t they read English? It’s a Gun-Free Zone.
And a sign under that reads “AND THIS TIME WE REALLY MEAN IT!”
After each shooting and another “Really” to the sign! “We Really REALLY mean it!”
I try to stay away from big cities.
Why the NERVE of that guy opening fire in a Gun-Free Zone.
Impossible, it was a gun free zone, no one can fire a gun there.”
Gunfree zones are welcome mats to bad actors.
