Prava drama odvijala se u četvrtak poslijepodne na krcatom Times Squareu u New Yorku. Nakon masovne tučnjave usred bijela dana, odjeknuli su pucnjevi koji su stotine turista i prolaznika natjerali u paničan bijeg. Policija je ubrzo nakon događaja uhiitila jednog tinejdžera, dok se za ostalim sudionicima i dalje traga, piše ABC .
Sve je počelo oko 15:40 sati na uglu 44. ulice i Broadwaya. Prema policijskim izvješćima i snimkama nadzornih kamera, mlađi muškarac, najvjerojatnije tinejdžer, izvukao je vatreno oružje i počeo pucati. Iako srećom nitko nije pogođen, sam zvuk hitaca i prizor naoružanog napadača izazvali su stampedo na jednom od najpoznatijih svjetskih trgova.
- Nisam vidio puno, ali bio sam odmah iza ugla kada se začula pucnjava. Pogledao sam na mobitel i odmah vidio obavijest da je došlo do pucnjave blizu Times Squarea, ispričao je svjedok Jose Rios .
Filmska potjera i druga pucnjava
Napadač je nakon pucnjave počeo bježati prema jugu. U potpunom kaosu doslovno je naletio na jednog policajca, srušio ga, a potom nastavio trčati dok mu je policija bila za petama.

No, tu drami nije bio kraj. Dok je policija privodila prve osumnjičene, samo nekoliko ulica dalje, na uglu 45. ulice i Osme avenije, došlo je do druge pucnjave. Uplašeni ljudi bježali su glavom bez obzira, sklanjajući se u obližnje trgovine i suvenirnice. Zaposlenici jedne trgovine ispričali su da su pomagali ljudima koji su u općem stampedu padali po podu.
‘Ovo je ludo, ovdje je puno turista‘
Osim panike zbog oružja, u masovnoj tučnjavi koja je prethodila svemu teško je ozlijeđen 26-godišnji muškarac. Policija ga je pronašla s ubodnom ranom na vratu te je hitno prebačen u bolnicu, no očekuje se da će preživjeti.
- Ovo je ludo. Stvarno ne očekuješ da se ovako nešto dogodi u ovom dijelu grada. Pogotovo zato što je ovdje uvijek ogroman broj turista, izjavio je Abdul , koji radi u blizini.

Policijske snage odmah su blokirale cijelo područje, češljajući teren u potrazi za čahurama i dokazima. Iako je jedan tinejdžer u pritvoru, policija još uvijek utvrđuje je li upravo on osoba sa snimki koja je otvorila vatru i ugrozila stotine života. Istraga o motivima ovog brutalnog obračuna se nastavlja, zaključuje ABC .
