Shooting in Boerum Hill
Brownstoner received a tip about a shooting on Warren Street last night:
A reader emailed us last night after arriving home at around 8 o’clock to find that her block of Warren Street between 3rd and 4th Avenues had been shut down following a shooting. There were a couple of dozen cops on hand, and they said that someone from the nearby Gowanus Houses had been shot; she inferred from there comments that it was a teenager. She also inferred that the shooter was still on the loose. Anyone else nearby pick up any other details?

I live on 4th and I’m surprised when there ISN’T a shooting between 3rd and 4th.

Warren street is the hood block it’s quiet with a parking lot on one side and projects on the corner it is truly a ghetto block

everyone is always hanging out with 40 oz. beer bottles, smoking crack/cocaine all the time you smell it as you pass by the cops never patrol that street

And yet so close to the public housing… who would of thunk? Could we look at statistics? Carry expectations? Nah… that would be soooo politically incorrect.
