Protecting murderous criminals is the Democrats priority...can't have any of his voters unable to vote for him

Man shot in head in drive-by outside soft-on-crime Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie’s NYC office

A man was blasted in the head during a drive-by shooting outside of the Bronx offices of State Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie on Monday afternoon, police and law enforcement sources said.

Heastie (D-Bronx) — one of the three most powerful elected officials in the state and a leading advocate of New York’s lenient criminal justice reforms — is believed to have been in Albany for budget negotiations at the time.

At least 10 shots were fired from a white BMW sedan on Gun Hill Road and Fenton Avenue at around 3 p.m., with multiple gunmen believed to have opened fire outside the speaker’s one-story district office, sources said.

The 20-year-old victim, whose name was not disclosed, was brought to Jacobi Hospital Medical Center with life-threatening injuries, the NYPD confirmed. His condition was later upgraded to stable, sources said. 

It’s unclear what sparked the violence, or if the victim was targeted.
