Did anyone see what happened on bedford/forest street? I think a pedestrian was hit crossing near Latham park.

I live in the area and am waiting to hear more. I haven’t seen anything yet on the Advocate, NextDoor or Twitter. If anyone has any more info, it would be appreciated.

Heard over the scanner there was a shooting. They declared a Mass Casualty Incident, but that does not necessarily mean deaths. Seems like they’re closing scene down. Just said two victims in total.

Yes! If anyone have volunteered before there, how was your experience?

What are you looking for, exactly? I’ve experienced best of / worst of, but I’m unclear on what you’re asking.

I don't disagree with you but I think this is kind of useless advice? In my experience in Stamford if you approach someone they'll be very guarded and tell you to leave them alone. That's not something you fix by being more outgoing.

Sure. Stamford Hospital wants to pretend it’s a NYC hospital but doesn’t have the services, resources nor the staff expertise to back that up. For minor illnesses or injuries it is fine, but for more serious or life threatening illnesses, it doesn’t measure up. Further, they are predatory with billing and collections. Money is their primary concern.

Then those people should live in a bubble life is very short. I can tell you from experience. Watching Netflix to ending up in a coma. You have to face those fears sometimes

People are generally equal parts terrified of 1) being approached by someone they don't know and 2) approaching someone they don't know. That's the world we're in now.

Do you get the logic you just applied there? You're telling me you never met someone cool in the park or store or library? Who said anything about clubs or party at 1am? English is my second language but Jesus christ.

You pretty much walk outside walk up to a person you and start the introduction the old school way and go from there. Worked for years.

Different incident. I’m talking about summer street, outside the movie theater. Still a police presence 8 hours later.
