At around 6:30 p.m., Sabine's door should have been locked, but a woman came into the salon to make an appointment. She held the door open and the armed robber entered.
The gunman attempted to rob the customers but he got a surprise: 50-year-old NYPD officer Feris Jones was getting her hair done. She drew her weapon and identified herself as a police officer. The gunman fired three shots at Jones, at close range, which she miraculously dodged. Then she plugged him once; he fled leaving some blood behind.
Jones has since identified this thug from police photos. Thanks to the brave police officer, no one but the gunman was injured.
Remember, Fort Greene, "If you see something, say something." That's one of the best features about that cool phone in your hand. We can help to keep each other safe.
