«That’s not what we need,» he told the Daily News Ayanna Prescott, which all his 30 years he lived in Crown Heights. «The area needs facilities for children. He needs the school.»

The crowd near the restaurant chanted «Bye, Becky!», but the owner of the «Summerhill» went out to see them, although apologized, writing in social networks, that holes from bullets — not real, and she in no way wanted to hint at crime in Crown Heights.

«I didn’t intend to offend any of the people living here. I’m sorry that it happened, and I sincerely apologize,» said Brennan.

Judith Lovell, who lives in Crown Heights more than 50 years, believes that Brennan had been careless, not realizing how her «marketing» will affect people.
«Come out to people, find out what they need,» said Judith. «It’s not funny. People die from firearms every day, and it’s awful. That is why we are gathered here today.»
