with what people are describing as an ar-15 type gun, a long gun that's not typical of assaults seen in new york city because that type of gun is very, very hard to get in new york city. but there is a report of at least one person other than the shooter who has been shot at the hospital. and there are multiple conflicting reports about whether others have been shot. we also have reports that there was a fire on the eighth floor of the hospital and that there was smoke coming out of the 16th floor. you've got a helicopter shot on the right side of your screen, which does not show any smoke. but we did see very large numbers of firefighters assemble moments ago outside the hospital. it is unclear whether they have gone in. we'll try to get that information in a moment. but you see a very, very large police presence around the bronx. this is a very busy area of the bronx. grand concourse is a major thoroughfare in the bronx and bronx-lebanon hospital a not for profit private hospital in the bronx is a major medical center in the bronx. i want to go to nbc news reporter adam reese who's on the scene for

and stats from 2015 are interesting 232 fatalities on streets of new york city regarding involving motor vehicles, 14 of those in 2015 were cyclists accidents, 81 were auto to auto. and 137 most by far, deaths of pedestrians on the streets of new york city. according to dot, more dangerous to be a pedestrian than driving or riding a bike here. >> the question that i have, does anyone know, how did he fall off the bike? this was totally preventible. and really did not have anything to do with congestion. it sounds like a terrible accident. >> from what i have seen. and new york the new york police department came out said, he was traveling between a parked car, and this charter bus, and the parked car was actually double parked, he did not have much room to navigate, he fell off the bike, and ended up under the bus, he leaves a wife and two children in brooklyn heights. >> a lot of things that i hear about people biking in the city, there are not enough bike lanes, or if there are bike lanes they are blocked with other things, did you see that. >> i just mentioning, that city take -- cycl

that the, that new york state before the civil war denotes a place of freedom, that blacks in this new york city designates harlem, that the black community posits a classless and culturally unified society, that a black elite did not exist until well into the 20th century. the lives of my new york forebearers belies such assumptions. they were born free at a time when slavery was still legal in new york state. they lived in racialty-mixed neighborhoods, first in lower manhattan and then after the civil war in brooklyn at a time when harlem was a mere village. they were part of new york's small but significant community and, specifically, its elite class. so the first impulse for my writing the book was my desire to overturn these assumptions, assumptions that we live with almost on a daily basis. and, therefore, to point to the significance of the black elite in new york city. so it was a professional impulse, if you will. the second quote is from the end graph of the prologue. and it is from toni morrison's "beloved." denver was seeing it now and feeling it through beloved, and the more fine p

academy is back in session our schools have some of the highest growth scores on the leap in the city of new york side tech academy is a perfect fit for scoring high and academics winning championships and tackle football and volleyball and working hard every day to get into the city's best high schools and colleges provide a laptop for every child side tech academy is located a charter schools or businesses let's just be clear about that and what does a business do a business wants to maximize its profits and reduce its cost that means high cost student students who need more resources to learn or more of a lot of building for those. so it calls in less to educate a higher performing student than to educate a student and have a lot of meaning and they get to have autonomy to discriminate and we see that in the data. we begin to see a lot of the titles change there were many people who had had no experience running schools they may have been business people who will now become the c.e.o. as they try their hand at operating a school day. so i started working at ash at the end of my six months i kn

of preventing crime. hospitals right now all over the country, especially in new york city, they're really very disorganized in preventing somebody from walking in with a gun trying to commit a crime. this is a wake-up call. i hope the mayor of new york and the leaders of the city look at this and say, are we doing a good job in monitoring the prevention of crime in our hospitals? this is a perfect example. so far as a doctor is concerned, we also have to realize we have a mental crisis right now in a lot of healthcare professions. i don't know the story so far why the doctor was let go and what was the circumstances. if you look at health care today, mental -- health professionals are going through severe mental crises. right now there's no positive way or preventative way to model low these people and say how can we help you? we let you go. what is going on in your life? are there any drug abuse problems? because it doesn't happen. they basically walk you out the door and they kick you out. again, i'm not justifying as to why this individual got let go. but we have a huge disconnect in the healthcare prof

city subway. last year they took 1.7 billion rides on the subway, and while this is not just a story about the new york city subway system, while we're on the subject the governor of york this week declared it a state of emergency. and for good reason. new yorkers have come to accept crushing overcrowding and delays every day, say nothing of the dirt, the heat, the odor, the deafening noise, and the routine sight of rats arguing over food in the track bed below. the system is over a century old, some of the systems used date back before world war ii. and dozens of the train cars used today were built in 1964. it's all because not enough people or mayors have cared over the years. and after the derailment injured over 30 people this week, the government stepped in and demanded answers in 30 days. a project like this also goes by the name, infrastructure. and in a white house looking for an agenda, imagine a president from new york focusing cameras and attention on transportation from new york all the way west to san francisco. urging a great nation to go to work and summon the spirit of the days when our railroads of all things were the envy of the world. that is o
