Windsor Terrace / South Slope Crime 5/30/07?

Walking the dog last night I noticed dozens of police vehicles, officers, and concerned looking residents all over the South Slope area. Does anyone have any idea what went down around 10pm 5/30 between 6th and 7th avenue, somewhere between 15th and 20th street?

Just curious. It was a very odd atmosphere.

  • Read this in the Courier.
    "Over 100 firefighters were called to the corner of 19th Street and 8th Avenue Wednesday afternoon to put out a two alarm blaze that threatened to destroy a vacant mattress factory. Five firefighters suffered minor injuries as they beat back the heavy flames and smoke in the half hour it took to douse the 3 p.m. blaze. The cause of the fire was still being investigated as this paper went to press."
  • I'm pretty sure the fire in the mattress factory was last wednsday, so that's not it.

    That's what I get for trying to be helpful.
  • Anytime you're wondering about sirens from fire trucks or 5-0, hovering police helicopters, etc. - check Gothamist's Newsmap:

    Pretty darn near live map of police or fire actions.
  • Already a thread on the fire from last week ( I started ;) ).

    Send along more specific info and let me see what I can dig up at CB7.
