SWAT Team in HoBe
Got home this evening (1/7) around 5:30-ish to this (see photo's). At first I thought..........all this because of spotting!!!
As it turned out a neighbor around the corner and virtually over the fence in our backyard had a slew of weapons and the SWAT team was there, along with NYPD. There was a helicopter too, but he must of have left by the time I got home. Not sure if there were any hostages, but the guy gave up and handed over his weapons was what the SWAT guy told me.
Here is a SWAT guy in the back looking out the bedroom window

The SWAT here is actually called ESU, and is part of the NYPD.
Good pics! Glad all are safe. :)

Wow... amazing and not a great thing near home LOL. Now, next time, do not say HoBe ... you scared me our spotting location had been raided and shut down! :P

The funny thing is I'm a SWAT instructor for the agency I work (SWAT - SoftWare Acquisition Training). Go figure!!!

I believe this was a barricaded EDP/Perp.
