Thompson addresses gun violence at Coney Island meeting
Andrea Clinton has lived in Coney Island for the better part of a century. Even as crime has dropped in the neighborhood considerably since the 1990s, she said she is still afraid of the rampant gun violence she has seen.
“I’m scared to go out even during the daytime. I don’t know where they’re shooting at. When I think everything is good, I go out to take care of my business and I see the yellow tape,” she said.
