At that time of day, there had to be a lot of people on the street who saw it happened and maybe caught part of a license plate number. Not to mention cameras that are around to catch drivers that are speeding. Another senseless killing in DeBlasio’s Dodge City.

Sarah, no one is looking at the license plate while the shots are fired. Only hope is for the cameras. This is a city that Deblacio has created.
