As Reported By The New York Post:
A small army of cops descended on a building in the Flatiron District this afternoon and took a crazed gunman into custody after he threatened construction workers, police sources said. The suspect, Kenneth Clarfield, 69, turned out to be a “hoarder” who has rarely left his apartment over the past 30 years, according to one police source.
When he has ventured outside, Clarfield usually wears a colorful bandanna and sits on a fire hydrant on his block, said neighborhood resident Daryl Glenn, 45. “I’ve seen him in the neigborhood for 20 years. It is a little odd that he sits there, Glenn said, adding, “My friend was in the building on his floor. He’s pretty shaken up.”
