Shots Fired…Literally: 14-Year-Old Shoots Up Teyana Taylor’s Cookout And Injures Cop, “It’s Like A Riot Out Here”

Poor Teyana. Why can’t some black people act right?

According to The NY Post

Shooting At Teyana Taylor’s Cookout

It’s not a July 4th cookout until someone catches a mean slug. Does the heat make some black people crazy? Damn homie it’s the July 4th cookout not World War 3. Calm that isht down.

A 200-person party hosted by local rapper Teyana Taylor in Morningside Park descended into mayhem late yesterday — leaving one cop hurt and another reveler arrested, police and attendees said.

The crowd gathered around 9pm at West 120th Street and Morningside Avenue and quickly got out of hand, party-goers said in Facebook posts.

“It’s like LA (cali) after a riot out here at Morningside park. Police everywhere. Helicopters in the sky. Madness,” posted Aaron Rose.

The mob first occupied the park, then moved on to the West Side Highway and attempted to climb the fences of Riverbank State Park.

A Housing sergeant injured his shoulder trying to quell the crowd, and a 14-year-old was arrested for firing a gun into the air, police said.

“They just shot Teyana Taylor cookout up,” read one post on Twitter, while another noted “After it got dark teyana taylor cookout got mixxy lol ..had to leave.”

Taylor recently signed to Kanye West’s music label.

Ninjas shooting up the movie theater, the cookout, the club….what’s next? Maybe bullets should cost like $5,000 and then people would think twice about firing a gun into a crowd. That’s some punk isht.
