INDIANS GO ON AND GET DUSTED.

Alright, these photo's were taken on a newspaper assignment. I couldnt find the place because it was some small park just south of Atlantic Avenue at 129th or something like that. Wayyy out there! Anyways, some kid was choking on dust and passed out and when I went to take a photo of him a police officer said, "Hey you little shit, keep movin!" That's what he said, can't change a quote up. So I walked through this whole park taking some pics and out of nowhere some kid comes up and dumps red powder all over my head which got all over my camera of course. I was happy to find all the other photo nerds on the other side hiding with their zoom lenses from other papers though, and me walking up DUSTED. I made a point of it not to wash my jacket when I went to go pick up my check as a means for them to say, maybe we should give him a bonus for an indian war assignment. So I got paid decent but they never used the photo's. Maybe next year.
