At home anxiously awaiting a cylinder change for my door since certain people are not trustworthy these days. I am not a thief and couldn’t steal at all because it is just not in me but, some people do it everyday like a common job. Its very sad that this is the world we live in. Just yesterday in the morning around 7am, right outside my window, a man got shot down at the bus stop. I was shocked and amazed that something like this could happen so fast and for justice to not be immediately served, I was more upset about the incident. I was still in my bed when I heard the sounds of shots being fired. I heard two shots then a brief pause and then another two shots with a brief pause. At this point I decided to get out of the bed and see what was going on. When I looked out the window I saw  a  woman at the bus stop along with a housing development worker. I saw the woman screaming and crying while a man was on the ground near the fence. I thought the man was hurt and felt so bad. I was about the call the police when I saw that the housing worker was already on the phone with a 911 person. I have never seen something like this happen so close to my home. This is very scary and not safe at all. This was at exactly 7am, which is the time where people are outside trying to get to work or school. The man was on the ground for 5mins and then I started seeing the blood pouring out of him onto the sidewalk like a puddle. My significant other was with me at the time and he also saw this happening. I knew the man wasn’t going to make it when all his blood started pouring out onto the sidewalk trailing towards the curb. The fire department was right across the street yet they took 10 minutes to come, which I thought was unacceptable. The 75th precinct police department was even worse in their time because it took them from 30mins to and hour to get over here. The woman that was at the bus stop was hysterical… crying and screaming. I still have a chill from the whole incident. I saw when they covered him up with the sheet and when the detectives came. A few detectives came and knocked on my door and asked me if I saw what happened and I told them that I heard the shots fired. I also saw when the channel 12 news van came and parked outside my building. This is such a scary unsafe world we live in that sometimes you ask yourself….”When will it end? “. Well I hope that I get the money, the knowledge, and the courage to get my family out of Brooklyn one day .
