NYPD Officer Checks Phone, Reads Shooting Is Happening 20 Feet To His Left
BROOKLYN, NY—This morning, during a mass shooting in a Sunset Park train stain in Brooklyn, two on-duty officers were in the middle of a conversation about Jada Pinkett Smith and her potential attractiveness compared to her hair length at a given time. During a lull in the conversation, when both conceded that even bald, Smith has a "banging face and bod," Officer Jensen, 33, checked his Twitter.
"Oh, word?" he said to his partner, scrolling his phone with his face mask on his chin. "Bro, I think there's a shooting happening right now."
"Deadass?" asked his partner, Officer Kinley, 28, surveying the surroundings. More people were sprinting by them screaming in terror than typical on a subway shift. Also, he did hear gunshots coming from the platform but thought nothing of it.
"Deadass. And it's in this station I think."
"Oh, word? That's crazy..."
The two, not sure how to proceed, stood still and waited around as if in some sort of Waiting for Godot-type limbo. Luckily for them, an unhoused man appeared and they were able to turn their attention to him to make sure he gets the fuck out.
