If this thing was 2 blocks away and wasn't something that happened a few weeks after the Batman shooting, chances are you probably wouldn't even hear about it in Calgary. It's the ESB connection and timing that is making it a big headline.
I dunno, maybe it's just me, but I was more concerned about an air conditioner falling on my head than I was about random shootings in Manhattan. Considering the sheer amount of people there, I'm surprised this kind of stuff doesn't happen more.
