Yesterday’s pandemonium at McCarren Park Pool resulted in two officers being sent to Bellevue with minor injuries. Police were called to intervene at the pool around 5:15 p.m. after a group of rowdy bathers began doing backflips and diving into the pool, and lifeguards were unable to control them. When cops tried to eject the swimmers, they retaliated, and one officer was punched in the face. The NYPD tells us a second officer sustained a wrist injury during the skirmish—both were treated and released.
Caddy Day is 1:00 to 1:15 for a reason.
