A man died while trying to flee the dozens of federal agents who raided a heroin mill in a Castle Hill apartment. The man jumped from a 9th floor balcony to a 6th floor balcony, but "slammed his head against a sixth-floor railing." Two other women who tried to make the same jump were hospitalized.
Eleven other people tried to flee as well, but were eventually captured. They jumped down to other balconies, and one resident of the building told the Daily News, "They said, 'I'll pay you $2,000 to hide me.'" He opted not to and he and his mother "got kitchen knives" to "scare them" away.
Inside the apartment 9G, which had dark-tinted windows and little furniture, Drug Enforcement Agents found $200,000 worth of heroin (2-3 kilos), which was being "sorted into small packages, including a large number of 'dime bags.'" According to the DEA, the NY-area heroin operations have grown in recent years.

What a shame. Such a productive, young life cut short.
it's too bad nelson muntz wasn't there.
it's also too bad that all eleven of them didn't suffer the same fate.
13 others who should have made the jump as well. I hope they can get at least one snitch from the lot.
How many $M do you think a Bronx jury will award the family of the jumper in a wrongful death suit?
that's a shame.
This crime(?) does not deserve the punishment.
Heroin should be legal.
Next time put your mill in a basement apartment and things like this wont occur. Are people in the Bronx always stupid?
Legalize heroin and allow more people to OD. That should solve part of the problem.
I would love to see a video of this sped up 2x set to the Benny Hill theme music.
Sidenote: I refuse to believe that anyone is as dumb as BINGORAMAIREZ would lead us to believe. Judging by both his comments, he either didn't read the article or didn't comprehend it. Maybe he's just being ironic and I'm the idiot?
The war on drugs is disgusting.
What's going to happen to their customers now? The junkies need heroin.
#4- Maybe when one or two of your 24 kids gets hooked on heroin you'd rethink yourself.
bingo STFU, you are an obvious troll trying to make minorities look bad. i'm tired of your posts because people are starting to believe that you are real. i mean really, RAMAIREZ?? you didn't even spell it correctly.
#14- Yeah, because when you're running from cops who are raiding a drug den you're not guilty of ANYTHING.
#15- Er, actually, that is a legitimate spelling.
Well then I guess the only option for you is to move to PR.. right?
What I find quite funny is how Dominicans always complain about Puerto Ricans...
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Where in the article did it say the agents threw the alleged drug dealer off the balcony? I'm not saying it would be wrong to do same, but nowhere in the article did it say they actually did same.
Regarding the spelling of your name, wouldn't the immigration papers, if there are any, show what the proper spelling of your last name is? Why would one adopt the incorrect spelling based on a name that some other illegal immigrant put on a city paycheck?
yeah. my heart bleeds.
Smart, I won't get arrested but I will kill myself
jumping off a balcony 9 stories up.
Deport them if they are foreigners, Nah!
BINGORAMAIREZ, is what you call a troll. Plenty of them around the internet.
today is a good day when people off themselves.
Is there a service that will tint my apartment windows or is it a DIY thing?
BINGO, we don't want you to clean our guilt, but please feel free to clean the bathroom. Zing!
I just read through a few of your other posts. It's glaringly obvious that you just want attention. At least, be a little believable. Seriously, associating Al Sharpton with the truth?? Come on.
Don't annoy the rest of us with your bullshit just because you hate your mother.
Actually, Bingo, you are the only one here making racist comments. No where in any article on any site that has covered this story does it mention the race or skin color of anyone involved. You are the one assuming that the idiot who jumped from one floor to another was a 'person of color'. To blame the cops for that dumbass's death is equivalent to you blaming us for your completely stupid and race-baiting remarks.
Maybe the good reverand would like to re-create just how things went down, including the rail kiss and SPLAT!
My father was a city employee and they spelled his name that way in error and it stayed that way
even Snoopy doesn't think that latinos are so stupid they would change their name because someone else spelled it wrong.
Too bad if you dont like the fact that a person of color can think on his own and wont take your hipster/yuppie racism while you encourage a system of brutality.
only bleeding-heart liberals use the term "person of color." if you were black you would say so, if you were latin you would be even more specific. but you aren't, you are white pretending to be a minority.
the other evidence is that this post has significantly better grammar than your other posts because in your zeal to defend your fake identity you forgot to make mistakes.
your troll-fu has failed you.
bingo does landscaping too
What's the saying? Those who cry racism the loudest are the most racist of all?
Is Bingo really Rev Al in disguise? Hmmmm? Or was it Bingo's apartment that the mill was in? And now he's going to have to give it up.
And it's true Dominicans do not like Afro-Americans. I have had several very very dark skinned Dominican players on my baseball team and they do not relate at all to the Afro-Americans. So stop with the skin color bullshit. I also know a few people from Trinidad who are as dark as the ace of spades and they also don't relate to the Afro-American bullshit. And these were people who decended from slaves in Trinidad, but were Indian in origin and not African.
What happened, Bingo? Did your dealer take that header in the Bronx and now you're sweatin' and paranoid? Really, we're not all racists and were goin' out to get you some swag so you can settle down.
Goddamit now I'm out too! Fuck! Who's got some shit? I said, WHO'S GOT SOME SHIT? WHO'S GOT SOME FUCKING SHIT? GODDAMIT!!!!!
Didn't know heroin was still around...
Bingo. Give it up. I, and most of the other "racists" on this blog, really don't find your arguments convincing.
Based on your artificial name you really should go back to your roots and find out why you can't get a better job other than being the "grill master" for the late night shift at McDonalds.
I am Dominican (then again I am caramel colored and not dark skinned) and I cannot relate at all to the Afro-American experience.
I was raise in an upper middle class community in Florida, College Educated and never been mistreated by a cop or anyone White for that matter.
And I've lived in New York now for about 8-9 years, and grew up in Florida.
So speak for yourself BINGO, when grouping all Ethnic types.
I tried to tell him Shino but some people wont listen or see the reality that's out there.
It has nothing to do with skin color. It's an ongoing "You owe me kind of attitude." My grandparents in Italy were basically serfs and came to this country to make a better life for their children. Why can't these people shape up and have fewer children out of wedlock and do something with their lives?
'Cause that would mean less on their welfare checks, yo.
I'm surprised at you regulars. Thanks to you, the troll has accomplished his mission.
