As the New Yorkers began to gather to commemorate the 21st anniversary of the horrific attacks on the city and the nation, a former Major League Baseball pitcher who became a police officer in New York City, was killed Sunday morning on his way to work. The assignment he was heading towards was the September 11th memorial ceremony in lower Manhattan.
SWAT teams and police from several agencies converged on a single-family house in a quiet Endicott neighborhood to apprehend a man suspected of killing his brother.
There's a video on YouTube of police in NYC that's been getting a lot of buzz. Every year there's an event called The Broadway Bomb where thousands of skateboarders shoot down eight miles of Manhattan streets. The authorities are not amused.
