Yesterday, it was reported that one of two guns which had gone missing from the 103rd Precinct in the Queens later surfaced at a Brooklyn station house as part of the NYPD gun buyback program. It was ironic enough that police paid $100 for their own gun back—then yesterday, the man who returned the gun was arrested after he willingly and nonchalantly told police officers his story about selling the gun. But was he acting a good samaritan, a braggart, or a thief? more ›

One of two NYPD handguns that went missing from the 103rd Precinct stationhouse in Jamaica, Queens, on Saturday later surfaced at a Brooklyn station house as part of the NYPD gun buyback program. Police sources tell the Daily News that the guns may have been stolen by disgruntled officers as part of a "retaliatory prank."

Recent parolee Akin Webster, 25, surrendered to police in connection with a drive-by shooting that killed a member of the Bloods gang in Arlington on Nov. 16. The suspect — who was paroled in March after serving three years for slashing a rival's face — is accused of shooting 25-year-old Kameek Sears because the victim didn't "watch out for" Webster during a recent fight in prison, the Daily News reports. Webster has also been charged with shooting and wounding Sears' friend, Donte McKee, 23. Four members of the Bloods were killed in Staten Island last month, prompting some gangsters to skip town to stay safe. more ›

One man was killed and several injured in two separate shootings that occurred on the same block in East New York yesterday. 21-year-old Donovan Glen died after being shot in the head when some unwanted guests crashed a Friday night party on Atkins Avenue. Glen had an 18-month old daughter and was described by friends as someone who spent most of his time "at home, not on the street." 21-year-old Kendall Jones was also injured in the shooting at 2 a.m. Saturday. Ray Kelly told reporters, "It was a birthday party and going back to college party, and people tried to crash the party and that's where the trouble started." Then yesterday afternoon just down the block on Atkins, three more men were shot. All were injured with non-life threatening injuries and treated at Brookdale Hospital. A neighbor told the Daily News, "I think it was retaliation, but I don't know. It's like gunshot avenue over here." more ›
