Over 180 bullets fly in terrifying footage of recent NYC gun battles — as DA flashes blood-covered gun announcing major gang bust
NY Post ^ | 5/11/26 | Reuven Fenton, David Propper

Remarkable footage captured some of the recent gang battles that unleashed 182 bullets in the middle of Brooklyn streets — with one brazen thug firing minutes after a court-ordered meeting, officials said Monday.

“It’s unnerving,” admitted borough District Attorney Eric Gonzalez, who picked up a gun used in one of the crimes to show reporters at the briefing but said he wouldn’t handle another — because it still had blood on it.

The chilling videos “give you a sense of the brutal war that is being waged on some of our streets,” he said.

The horrific caught-on-camera gun violence included several of 16 shootings involving 15 alleged gang members whose arrests were announced by Gonzalez and NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch.

The bloodshed pitted Coney Island-based gangs such as Fly Ooter Gang, a k a FOG, and “Koney Sides” against central Brooklyn criminal groups includinng Folk Nation, WOOO and Choo.

The rivals “terrorized” communities for more than a year, leaving an innocent 16-year-old boy paralyzed and three other bystanders, including another 16-year-old, caught in the crosshairs.

A 17-year-old FOG/Koney Sides gang member also was fatally shot in the head by friendly fire during one street battle with Folk Nation — part of the slew of violence involving nearly 200 bullets, authorities said.

“I think what’s troubling is how trigger-happy these young men appear to be,” the top prosecutor said.

Video of an April 27, 2025, shootout showed Tamari Carmona crumple to the ground at the Flatbush Gardens Housing Complex after he was shot in the head and killed as his accomplice fled the scene and left him to die.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Must be the extended clips. The thugs really do run fast. Can the neighbors shoot back? Did any of those cars get hit? Imagine waking up to that. All of this could be marketed as a great motion picture. Video @ the link.

That’s odd. Don’t they have a 3 round limit on magazines in Filth York?

Was the firearm in an evidence bag? Otherwise he is tampering with evidence.

“It’s a staggering amount of bullets fired in Brooklyn,” Gonzalez said. “You have these bullets, obviously, endangering the lives of rival gang members who they were shooting at.”

“As well as innocent victims,” he added.

Biden: “Nobody needs that many magazines” in one of his anti-gun speeches. Gangs do not abide by any restrictions or laws.

Mom: "I raised my boy to save ammo and not go off shootin' like a fool. Ammo is expensive."

The only reason these gangs exist is because the government wants them to exist. New York City politicians are active partners in crime with the gangs and that’s why it never gets solved. Gangs make the money to pay off the politicians and politicians suppress and thwart law-enforcement.

Any gang that shoots 180 bullets in the middle of a crowded city street needs to be treated like an animal and put down.

I wonder what might happen if there were more cops using tougher methods, cops using stop and frisk, tough-on-crime DAs tough hanging judges, etc. It’s a mystery why the current set-up doesn’t work.

“Over 180 bullets fly in terrifying footage of recent NYC gun battles”. Were they boys or girls? Sometimes the ladies can get agile, mobile and even hostile.

From the article: ...gangs such as Fly Ooter Gang aka FOG, “Koney Sides”, Folk Nation, WOOO and Choo...

Hollywood writers are absolute amateurs compared to these guys.
