The call came in on Friday as a motor vehicle accident on Goffe Street. Sgt. Max Joyner, district manager of Beaver Hills, said he was down the street and got to the scene about 30 seconds after the call came in. There were no visible skid marks, Joyner said. Sgt. Robert Lawlor Jr., head of the Robbery/Burglary Unit, said that police so far have three witnesses, but all their accounts of the incident are different. “It doesn’t seem like anyone actually observed the initial incident,” he said. Some witnesses reported that between five and six male teenagers rushed Macquarrie and pushed him off the scooter, then proceeded to assault him, according to police. The only possible accident debris was a small piece of plastic that is a few inches long and a screw, he said. Macquarrie is a technician at New Haven Powersports, located on Whalley Avenue. He has also raced in Motocross races the majority of his life, according to employees at New Haven Powersports. He was released from the hospital on Saturday. Doctors who evaluated Macquarrie said his injuries are inconsistent with a quick beat down, according to Lawlor. Macquarrie had 31 stitches and eight staples in his scalp, two fractured ribs and a fractured right eye-socket following the incident. He was sent to Yale-New Haven Hospital for treatment. The last thing he remembers is being parked on his scooter at a red light before noticing the group of teenagers crossing the street, according to a previous Register report. One teen on a bicycle came close before, but his next memory was waking up in the hospital. “They didn’t take my wallet or my gold chain, just the scooter,” Macquarrie said in a previous report. There was also a report that a green car and a dark-colored Acura sped away from the scene, Lawlor said. Officers David Rivera and Jose Miranda spotted the candy-apple red scooter on Dixwell Avenue near the plaza shortly after 9:30 p.m. Friday. The two young men riding the scooter abandoned it after they fled into the rear yard of 31 Orchard Place, according to police. The scooter is being tested for forensic evidence. Calls placed to Macquarrie’s residence weren’t immediately returned. - - - Nice try, asshole. |

Nice try asshole. Funny how harry based his whole rant on something I didn't even say... LOL! What a fool.. You posted it. I'm sure you and your right-wing trash buddies believe it. Way back when, I used to walk sometimes from my high school, whose property bordered on Goffe Street, to downtown New Haven. That stretch of Goffe was in transition way back then. I had an afterschool job one semester at a gas station at the intersection of Whalley Avenue, Goffe Street, and Dixwell Avenue. Whalley and Goffe are named after two of the three so-called regicide judges who fled England and came to New Haven in the 17th Century, anticipating prosecution under King Charles II for their connection to the execution of his father Charles I. They hid in a rock cave on West Rock, and that cave is an historical landmark called Judges Cave. |

There are at least three city police stations within a few blocks of that area, and a Yale police substation nearby, and I'm sure the entire area is well-patrolled. But that doesn't mean every part of every area of the city has a police officer on the spot every minute of the day. What most cities need in their densely populated or commercial areas are more police officers *in uniform* and on foot. |

I have very little interest in needing my GPS programmed to warn me which streets are not even safe to drive down in the day time. I notice you chose to live 50 miles out of town. BTW what is the cultural activity in Calvert County? Bingo night at the Calvert Pines Senior Center? It's actually about 40 miles, a one hour, $3.75 commuter bus ride. Best way to get to DC if you work there. We have waterways and beaches, too. We have museums, galleries, large gardens to visit, many restaurants, a first-rate regional hospital, good doctors, outdoor music programs in good weather, a water park, marinas, public launch ramps, move theaters, lots of interesting fauna and flora, a pretty low crime rate here in Huntingtown, et cetera. Bingo usually is something the VFW or fire departments run. For serious shopping, e.g, a big-time shopping center, we do have to drive to Annapolis, about 30 miles along a lightly traveled state highway. Heck, we even have some nutcases in the Tea Party and Constitution Party. |

Huntington is just a shopping center on Rt 4 with 2300 people living nearby. BTW that real estate site you linked for Naples does not even know where the boundaries of Estero are but it did give us a crime rating of 13 (compared to 29 nationally). I was not willing to register to get the details. I do know that a "crime wave" here is a couple kids taking things out of unlocked cars and that is still pretty rare. I still leave my car unlocked and the key is always in the ignition of my boat. Sorry, but "estero" sounds like ladyparts to me. As in, the rash spread from my vagina to my estero. :) |

Where is the reliable source that backs up the claim in this bit of youtube nonsense? Your source claims the "mainstream" media aren't reporting the incident, but the New Haven Register, an old-line establishment newspaper is, and did so days ago. In fact, the Register reported the incident the day after it took place. Here's a followup piece from a couple of days ago: New Haven police say witness accounts of alleged scooter theft, assault all differ NEW HAVEN Police are still attempting to piece together the events that left Brooks Macquarrie seriously injured after his scooter was allegedly stolen Friday afternoon. The call came in on Friday as a motor vehicle accident on Goffe Street. Sgt. Max Joyner, district manager of Beaver Hills, said he was down the street and got to the scene about 30 seconds after the call came in. There were no visible skid marks, Joyner said. Sgt. Robert Lawlor Jr., head of the Robbery/Burglary Unit, said that police so far have three witnesses, but all their accounts of the incident are different. ?It doesn?t seem like anyone actually observed the initial incident,? he said. Some witnesses reported that between five and six male teenagers rushed Macquarrie and pushed him off the scooter, then proceeded to assault him, according to police. The only possible accident debris was a small piece of plastic that is a few inches long and a screw, he said. Macquarrie is a technician at New Haven Powersports, located on Whalley Avenue. He has also raced in Motocross races the majority of his life, according to employees at New Haven Powersports. He was released from the hospital on Saturday. Doctors who evaluated Macquarrie said his injuries are inconsistent with a quick beat down, according to Lawlor. Macquarrie had 31 stitches and eight staples in his scalp, two fractured ribs and a fractured right eye-socket following the incident. He was sent to Yale-New Haven Hospital for treatment. The last thing he remembers is being parked on his scooter at a red light before noticing the group of teenagers crossing the street, according to a previous Register report. One teen on a bicycle came close before, but his next memory was waking up in the hospital. ?They didn?t take my wallet or my gold chain, just the scooter,? Macquarrie said in a previous report. There was also a report that a green car and a dark-colored Acura sped away from the scene, Lawlor said. Officers David Rivera and Jose Miranda spotted the candy-apple red scooter on Dixwell Avenue near the plaza shortly after 9:30 p.m. Friday. The two young men riding the scooter abandoned it after they fled into the rear yard of 31 Orchard Place, according to police. The scooter is being tested for forensic evidence. Calls placed to Macquarrie?s residence weren?t immediately returned. - - - Nice try, asshole. ------------------------------------- So, in your mind it didn't happen, huh? Guy gets hit by a car and a couple of bystanders steal the scooter? Of course the scooter was stolen, but Psycho's youtube cite claimed it was a result of the Martin verdict. Dóh. It was from Facebook, where he gets his news when he's not watching FOX! |

Some claim he was beaten. Some claim he may have been hit by a car. Apparently there are no eye-witnesses, so nobody knows for sure. But you know what is a little strange? The victim has been identified as Brooks MacQuarrie. He works at New Haven Power Sports. This happened last Friday, which would be the 19th. He has a Facebook page which I found, thinking there might be more information available as to what really happened. Nope. In fact, there are no references to it at all and MacQuarrie has updated his page *since* the event .... during this week. Doesn't really mean anything but I thought that for a guy who has so many serious injuries that no mention of them have been made on his FB page was a little unusual. |

Hard to believe there are no witnesses, since that part of Goffe Street has housing, small businesses, lots of pedestrian traffic. Even the Shell station where I worked part time one semester after high school was over for the day is still there, amazingly, though the building has been redone into a convenience store. About two blocks away where it turns into Broadway are the Yale Co Op and the site of where Cutler's Record Store used to be. I'm sure you know the area. |
