Celebrating The Gift Of Life
Posted: February 14th, 2006 | Filed under: You're Kidding, Right?A baby shower turned bloody early yesterday when a gun-toting guest opened fire in a Brooklyn restaurant — hitting a Queens man who had just pulled him out of a fight over who had the better dance moves, police said.
The festivities were winding down at the New Combination eatery in East Flatbush when Teron Smith, 28, was shot in the left side of the face at about 12:45 a.m., cops said.
“Normally, we have parties here and we keep two or three bodyguards,” restaurant manager Ricardo Green said. “But we didn’t think we needed that. This was a baby shower.”
He said most of the 40 guests had left and his staff was cleaning up when one dancer stormed out, only to return shortly with two pals and a gun.
