2008_08_shotsfired.jpgThe home of an acting Supreme Court Justice currently hearing domestic violence cases was hit by gunfire early yesterday morning. Bullets hit the dining room wall and an upstairs bedroom wall at Justice Fernando Camacho's Springfield Gardens house. He and his family were in Montauk at the time of the shooting; they actually sold the house but were awaiting bank approval of the buyers. The police are investigating whether the gunfire was meant for the judge or perhaps his neighbor, who was in a dispute with someone else. Camacho was previously a Manhattan prosecutor who, per the NY Times, helped bring down "such notorious gangs as the Jheri Curls, from Washington Heights, and the Wild Cowboys."
