NOT A JUMPER
A guy I know works in a building directly next to the Brooklyn Bridge. He saw this entire incident take place out of his office window.
After firing a few shots into the air while standing on the bridge's
pedestrian walkway, the man pictured above quickly found himself
surrounded by heavily armed police. He then quickly sat down on the
walkway with his legs folded and shot himself in the chest. My friend
was impressed with the extreme speed that cops responded to any threat
on the bridge, but the incident unnerved him and completely freaked out
some of his co-workers. Between the woman getting cut in half by a
subway train Wednesday [see href="http://lexiphane.com/lex/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=5
79">SUBWAY SAFETY, 6/24,04] and this incident yesterday, it's
been a pretty grim week for the City Hall/Brooklyn Bridge neighborhood. Tagged:
