A few days ago (the date is confusing from all the news sources I’ve heard this from), a Bengali woman was shot by a stray bullet in Briarwood. It seems the guy who shot her was partying or something with his friends and decided to shoot around like a little dummy.
Today, I went to pray the Friday prayer at the Jamaica Muslim Center. They were talking about the tragedy. After the main prayer, James Gennaro stood in the front and gave a little speech about how he was shocked by the tragedy along with many other members of the city council. The whole time, we saw flashes going off on the TV[1]. After that, we prayed for Selina Akther and her soul.
When we came out, we saw photographers and videographers trying to get through the place. I waited a bit far away since the press people were going to the back. My nephew met up with me and we were waiting for my uncle. I saw the press coming out in front of someone who was walking. When I got close, I knew that it was Mrs. Akther’s husband, Golam Maola, by the look on his face. I decided to stay close and maybe get into a photo, but it was really crowded and I wouldn’t be surprised if I weren’t in a shot. Maola quickly got into a car and drove away with some other people. The press people slowly went away.

You sound weird, Sudman.
