Shots fired at Arsenal Park on 46th

[msr]

I live a few blocks away from Arsenal Park on 46th street. There was a large gathering going on there that was just interrupted by gunfire. I heard about 20 or so shots before I jumped inthe car to go investigate. Cops were swarming the place guns drawn when I drove by. Be safe out there!

Why in the world did you jump into your car and go investigate??????????????? Are you leo? If not are you a wantabe? I really don't understand why anyone who is not getting paid to do it would run towards gunfire. Sorry if I sound harsh but I don't understand your thinking.

I thought I heard something! Any more info on this? It's only a few blocks from me.

OP is derp. Hey I know let me get in the way of a potential life or death situation! I especially hate OP, when people like you do this at wrecks involving a fatality. There's always someone who took time out of their day to record on video or take pictures of firefighters surrounding a crashed vehicle to prevent people like you from taking the last bit of dignity the dead could have.

Heard shots fired on your property? No? Then why would you investigate anything? It didn't involve you. Call 911 if you want to do anything. Sheesh.

"Stay safe out there"? You should take your own advice.

Ok guys settle down, pardon my excited, hasty post. I didn't get into my car until 15 minutes or more after I heard the shots. And by "investigate", I meant driving by the park on my way to a neighbors house. If that makes me an idiot then so be it, but I bet most anyone would want to know what was going on in that situation.

I'll bet you're wrong.

Come on now. Take it easy here. The OP simply did his duty to INGO by putting himself in potential harm's way to keep us informed.

INGO REQUIRES INFO.

You're not an idiot. I would consider it being a good neighbor and responsible citizen. When there's trouble in your neighborhood, the idea to stay isolated in your house and "let the professionals handle it" is the kind of attitude that is ruining our society. I'm sure once you found the source of the commotion and saw that the police were on scene you remained at a distance and didn't get in the way. But staying involved in the community and investigating a potential problem and seeing if your help is needed is just being a good man, neighbor, and citizen. Well done.

C'mon guys. We're all human (well, some of us are). I'd go jump in my car and see WTF too.

(I wouldn't get out, and I wouldn't stop either but I'd drive past if it was on the way somewhere..)

If the OP is "derp" then many of the respondents here are "tards". I thought the OP's mother was here. Make your flippin' point then move on. Belittling and insuting the OP is uncalled for. Get out of feeding frenzy, group think-mode and simmer down. I didn't realize there were so many "let the police handle it and only listen to what you are told" folks here.
