Denise Delgado-Brown was minding her business standing outside of a nursing home on Sunday when out of nowhere she was shot by an arrow. Yep you heard me right… She was shot by a freaking arrow.
Denise told the media, “One more inch and I would have been dead!”
“Or had I bent down a little bit it would have went through my head.”
The 50-year-old younkers woman spoke to the media from her bed at St. Bamabas Hospital in the Bronx. Although tired and still in a little shock she was still upbeat.
“I thought, I’ve been hit by maybe a softball, and I looked down and I saw an arrow protruding out of my stomach,” she said, “I was going to pull it out at first, but it was stuck really deep.”
“I was shocked. I kept looking down, thinking… This can’t be happening.”
Denise a Yonkers traffic court clerk, joked that she always hoped her 15 minutes of fame would come from her singing talent, not a bizarre crime.
Meanwhile back on the streets, the police were franticly searching for the mysterious Robin Hood wondering if he or she would strike again.
Raymond Kelly, Police Commissioner seems to think that this was all an accident.
Officials said that Denise was hit by a Blackhawk 4000, a 30.5-inch-long professional shaft with a rang that can exceed 300 yards.
One of its three feathers was missing and it had a target practice tip – not a more lethal, razor-fitted head used for hunting.
The arrow flew from east to west, possibly from a rooftop, cops said.
Denise was dropping two friends off at Frances Schervier Nursing Care Center in Riverdale after church when she was hit. Cops searched the area Monday.
NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said it’s not illegal to own a bow and arrow in New York and use them on private property – unless the use in reckless.
Sources said the archer could be slapped with felony assault among other charges.
Denise’s co-workers were shocked when they heard the news and are pulling for her, said Yonkers City Judge Arthur Doran.
“We can’t believe something like this happened to a nice person like her. She always has a smile on her face,” Judge Arthur Doran said.
Denise longtime boyfriend, 53-year-old Randy Holdip, said he is sure the God-fearing woman won’t hold a grudge.
“We bear no animosity if it was an accident. We just hope that they turn themeselves in,” Randy said.
