Man someone an hour + ago just shot up a car in Jackson height 80/37th ave right before this incident - dude needs to be caught
They probably find the killer at Daltons restaurant on 84-14 Astoria Blvd
@rpecosita that place went downhill since new owners took over
I was playing WarZone I thought that shot sounded realistic
