A few Tompkins Square Park photos from late this afternoon courtesy of EV Grieve correspondent Bobby Williams... a few kids apparently started a fight, which promptly brought a large police presence....
I was there man, I saw it all. That one kid, he was totally gonna take that other kids backpack. But then, out of nowhere, an ENTIRE VAN FULL OF POLICE came out of nowhere to put an end to these school yard shenanigans. If only I had this kind of intense elementary school police presence growing up in Ohio, I might have turned out alright.
