Brooklyn Politician Opts to Walk Into INCOMING Traffic Instead of Answering Reporter’s Questions

Rodneyse Bischotte Hermelyn is a New York Assemblymember representing a number of neighborhoods in Brooklyn. She is also the sort of person that will go to any length to avoid reporter’s questions, even if that means walking into a very busy Flatbush Avenue despite oncoming traffic.

And no, that’s not hyperbole. There is video proof of Hermelyn’s curious exit strategy from an event at the iconic Junior’s restaurant in Downtown Brooklyn, where cameras captured the Assemblymember walking straight into a crowded boulevard, hemmed in by a large median and with no clear egress.

Hermelyn had reportedly agreed to an interview with an NY1 news reporter, but had second thoughts, and found a busy street the better option.
