Four people were injured Sunday afternoon at a Brooklyn subway stop in what started as officers’ attempts to apprehend a man accused of skipping the station turnstile.

This likely means that the knife never existed in the first place, and was made up by the cops in order to justify shooting into a crowd.

    You’re very right - There are famously ZERO tourists from other countries in New York City that could be struck by these stray bullets from these cowardly police officers.

    Any tourist visiting the US should be aware of the risk of getting shot. Either accidently by the police or drive-by-shootings, or intentional by gang violence or “stand-your-ground” idiots that shoot everyone passing by who “is not from here”. Visiting the US is like eating Fugu - it is a calculated risk.
