Last weekend when we went for a walk we happened on the aftermath of a shooting. Accounts vary, but it seems a crazed man with several guns climbed a tree or a scaffold as a choral concert on the steps of the Cathedral of St John the Divine was ending. Shouting, “kill me, kill me,” he shot into the air sending people on the street scrambling for safety. The police then shot him dead and then tons more police and emergency vehicles converged on the site.

I remember seeing this on the news. So awful.
Yes, it was kind of a big deal here, locally. Of course, fortunately, we actually missed it by minutes. All we really saw was a police army getting to pull out all the stops.
How awful
Yes, indeed.
