Shake Shack lockdown after slashing in Downtown Brooklyn
'I was able to see the bone'
A man was slashed in a vicious attack on the hot and crowded sidewalk in front of Shake Shack at the intersection of Fulton and Adams streets in Downtown Brooklyn on Thursday afternoon.
Witnesses said that two middle-aged men were arguing there at roughly 3 p.m. when one of them pulled out a knife and sliced open the other man’s arm.
Officers from the 84th Precinct responded almost immediately, witnesses said. Shake Shack was placed on lockdown by cops following the slashing.
Chaplain Aaron Williams, who saw the stabbing from inside the restaurant, said the victim suffered a severe 10- to 12-inch cut to the inside of his arm. “I was able to see the bone,” he said.
