the police and to assist them. so whereas the crc is more designed -- as a counterterrorism response and they're the units that you frequently see in front of say trump tower, down at the world trade center, in times square. other high profile spots in new york city. so the srg is in patrol. this is what they were designed and kind of brought to bear to respond to an incident just like this where there's reports of shots fired. multiple 911 calls and when responding to an active shooter the current thinking in policing is to confront that shooter as soon as possible. most incidents they only last 3 1/2 minutes. so you have to get there quickly and you have to confront the shooter quickly. that's what the srg is for. so they would have been out on the streets, they would have been in the area. they would have been in part of the patrol and that section of the bronx and they would have been there to handle it. >> all right. tom, thanks for the good reporting. stand by along with adam reese. i want to go back to bill
