Streets ahead: William B Helmreich has walked every block in New York - and stumbled upon incredible stories along the way
Over four years, covering 1,500 miles a year, Helmreich went in search of the heart and soul of the vast and variegated metropolis
Saturday 26 October 2013
Over four years, at 1,500 miles a year, I strolled, as a flâneur, through what is perhaps the world's greatest outdoor museum. The goal was to find the heart and soul of this vast and variegated metropolis by exploring all of New York City's boroughs: the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, and of course, Manhattan.
Dressed inconspicuously – in khaki or grey shorts, black walking shoes, grey or brown T-shirt (no gang colours) – I covered almost every block in Gotham. Had I not done so, I would have missed a great deal: a man walking in Bushwick, Brooklyn, accompanied by four pit bulls, with two boa constrictors loosely coiled around his neck; the West Bronx church advertising exorcisms every Friday night at 7.30pm; the city's unknown, most gorgeous natural waterfall, tucked away in an impoverished neighbourhood; and much, much more.
When I was nine years old my father devised a game to keep me entertained. It was called 'Last Stop'. We lived on Manhattan's Upper West Side. Whenever he was free on the weekend, we walked to the local 103rd Street stop on the IND (Independent Subway System) line. From that subway we would transfer to another train and take that to the last stop on the line. Upon exiting we would explore the neighbourhood on foot for a couple of hours, sometimes taking a city bus to further extend our trip. When we ran out of last stops on the various lines, we'd move the destination point to the third-to-last or some other stop. We played this game off and on for about five years, until I began high school.
That's how I learnt to love and appreciate New York City. I would stand with my father, looking out on the marshes that were in Brooklyn's Canarsie section, and reflect, "So this is where my teacher told me he'd send me if I misbehaved". One time my father poked his head into a bar near Utica Avenue in Brooklyn and everyone scattered. I never found out why. Another time we took a bus to the Throgs Neck neighbourhood in the Bronx, and I saw men fishing. I marvelled at the sight, having never before seen anyone fish. I was a city kid. I played in the streets, belonged to what passed for a gang on my block, and knew every chocolate bar in my local sweet shop. These experiences and the trips I took were the fertile ground where the idea for a book on walking around New York grew. As for my father, he continued walking well into his eighties, extolling its health benefits. He died of natural causes in 2011, three weeks shy of his 102nd birthday, so I guess he was right.
Walking New York City, block by block, brought into sharp focus a reality that I always knew was there but had never really articulated, because it was so much a part of me that I never felt a need to express it. It emerged time and time again as I spoke and interacted with people from every walk of life. To sum it up, New York is a city with a dynamic, diverse, and amazingly rich collection of people and villages whose members display both small-town values and a high degree of sophistication. This stems from living in a very modern, technologically advanced, and world-class city that is the epitome of the 21st century. That is both the major theme and conclusion of my intense and detailed journey to every corner of the Big Apple.
Ask someone who lives in the outer boroughs if they consider themselves New Yorkers, and the answer will almost always be a resounding yes. After all, isn't the city defined as five boroughs? And aren't they only 30 minutes to an hour away from Manhattan? These realities do contribute to a sense of oneness among people wherever they reside.
New York City has more legal immigrants and children of immigrants than any other city in the world, with almost 700,000 new immigrants arriving in the past decade alone. Together they make up a majority of the 8.3 million people living in the city, with most of them coming from the Dominican Republic, China, Jamaica, Mexico, Guyana, Ecuador, Haiti, Trinidad and Tobago, Colombia, Russia, India and Korea, along with those from Puerto Rico, who have a unique status as citizens, plus an estimated half-million-plus undocumented residents.
Helmreich says: 'Walking New York City, block by block, brought into sharp focus a reality that I always knew was there but had never really articulated' (Alamy)
Walking on 124th Street in East Harlem, I came across a remarkable mural that covers six storeys of a tenement building wall. Called Centro de La Paz (Centre for Peace), the mural was sponsored by the Creative Arts Workshop and painted by more than 200 New Yorkers, many of them poor neighbourhood youngsters. Their efforts were augmented by some 100 artists from around the world – Argentina, Ecuador, Nigeria, England, and elsewhere. The names of the artists are duly inscribed on a two-storey-high scroll that is part of the mural. It features skyscrapers, igloos, pyramids, and the Grand Canyon.
In a city with hundreds of murals, this one definitely stands out – in scope, design, beauty, and size. The many immigrant groups depicted and the themes of unity, diversity, and tolerance encompass the aspirations and hopes of the millions of immigrants who have come to New York City since its inception and who have shaped it into one of the greatest cities in the world.f
Impressive as this undertaking is, the immigrant experience can also be captured in individual stories. They look to the future but release their hold on the past with reluctance, because it is, and always will be, an essential part of their lives. That bifurcation is clearly brought home to me one day as I walk a street in Jamaica, Queens, and spy a man on a quiet block. He has created a beautiful garden along the grassy strip that runs next to the gutter. It's a small area, about four feet long and three feet wide, surrounded by a miniature white picket fence.
"These flowers are beautiful," I say by way of starting a conversation.
Small and wiry, with bright white teeth framed in part by a neat moustache, he responds with a soft smile: "They are flowers from my country, Guyana, which I love. I planted them to remind me of home. This way, when I look outside I always remember the beautiful place I lived in before I came here."
There's no way to know how many of the city's immigrants have used their gardens for similar purposes, but it's unlikely he's the only one. In this vignette it is apparent that home is never far from the thoughts of the immigrants. And is this any different from earlier generations of Italians who planted fig trees in their gardens that went under wraps every winter?
One of the biggest stories here in recent decades has been the gentrification of large swathes of New York City. The past 25 years have seen a large population shift as hundreds of thousands of young people have streamed back to the city that their parents abandoned. In this they have been augmented by large numbers of gentrifiers from all over the country.
Both groups have been attracted by the opportunities in the Big Apple as it has shifted from an industrial to a service economy. Coming at first as single, unattached adults, in recent years young people have been putting down roots, deciding more often than not that they want those roots to be in the inner city. And although low-income residents can be found in all five boroughs of New York City, this drift toward city living is part of a larger trend in which the poor are increasingly found in the city's outskirts and suburbs.

One tends to think of places like Manhattan's Tribeca or SoHo, or Brooklyn's Park Slope, as representative of this trend, and they are. Yet nowhere is the shift more apparent than in Harlem which has gone from an overwhelmingly black community to one that is almost 50 per cent white. To discover dramatic change one need go no further than Harlem's Bradhurst Avenue, now called WEB Dubois Avenue (after the civil rights activist), which extends from 145th Street to the Polo Grounds projects by 155th Street. Until the mid-1990s, Bradhurst Avenue was one of Harlem's most notorious locations for drug dealing and crime in general. Jackie Robinson Park, which runs along the avenue, was considered unsafe at any time of day or night.
Today it's a new world. On the corner of 145th and Bradhurst you have the luxury condominium called the Langston, after the poet Langston Hughes. This is followed by the Sutton, named for the Harlem political leader and former Manhattan borough president Percy Sutton. Next to it sits the Ellington, in memory of jazz icon Duke Ellington. You can now walk the length of Bradhurst Avenue in complete safety, even at night, though somewhat less so because of the projects at the north end, whose residents must look upon the street with envy – so close, yet so far away in terms of what they can afford.
Here are the words of Don, a maintenance worker at one of these buildings. Balding and dressed in a red-and-grey-checked flannel shirt, with owlish gold-rimmed glasses, he greeted me with a firm handshake. I had found him in the boiler room after someone in the building told me that he was the "neighbourhood expert". When I told him I was trying to understand the Bradhurst area now as compared to the past, he stared at me intently, like a man with something on his mind. He's a bouncy sort of guy, and he frequently punctuated his responses by jumping off the bench where he was sitting and describing, with windmill-like motions, how things had changed over time. I soon learnt graphically what Bradhurst used to be like in the "bad old days".
"Let me tell you somethin'. These apartments go from $300,000 [£187,000] to more than $400,000 [£249,000]. They got condos and co-ops. They got all sorts of stuff here. But one time, damn it, in June of 2010, they told me there's maggots here; you know, they feed on human flesh. I went to look at them and there must have been a half million maggots comin' up out of the ground, through cracks in the sidewalk. I don't know where the fuck they came from. When they came here to build and knocked down them old buildings – I swear to you I am not exaggeratin' – they knocked some of these walls down in the tenements here, and they discovered bodies in the walls. People had been buried here for years.
"And some of them was there because of Preacher [Clarence Heatley], the drug dealer, who ran this place. He'd say, 'I like this car' and you'd have to give it to him. If not, you could end up dead ... He controlled this state. All the drug dealers were afraid of him. He'd say, 'Give me money'. They'd have to give him money."
"So how did crack die here?" I ask.
"People just got tired of the crack. The crack epidemic started in Los Angeles in South Central and it came back east. That started all the wars. So many people got strung out. And then they just got tired of being drugged out and not havin' any money."
"Is Harlem becoming more white?"
"White? I call this area above 145th Street West [Greenwich] Village! You got white people, yuppies moving in here. All the prejudiced people, they died out. These yuppies don't give a shit. They just wanna get to their jobs. People get tired of having to have two-fare zones and everythin' else. Nobody wants that shit. So that's how the neighbourhood completely changed. This is now a very interestin' neighbourhood. And it's a lot safer now than it was before. Actually, in the early Seventies Bradhurst was a very nice area. Then came the crack epidemic and it all changed. Now it's back to where it was before."
With an annual murder rate (414 killings in 2012) that has dropped dramatically since 1992, New York has become the safest big city in the US. The immigrants have been welcomed, assisted, and are, by and large, adapting rather well. The city has been profoundly affected by 9/11, but it has rebounded extraordinarily well from the tragedy.
Gentrification has clearly invigorated the city. Yet beautiful as formerly poorer parts of New York City like Harlem or Bedford-Stuyvesant might look today, there is a concern that a world-class progressive city worthy of the name cannot consider itself a success if it fails to attend to the needs of its less fortunate residents. There are still plenty of poor people in this city, clustered in various areas like South Jamaica, Melrose, Brownsville, Manhattan's Alphabet City section of the Lower East Side, and portions of Staten Island's northern area. They need to be helped, according to this line of thinking, and both government and the private sector must do more to provide a safety net for the poor by creating more affordable housing, jobs programmes, and better municipal services.
It's when you walk the streets of, say, Brooklyn's East New York and Brownsville sections that you begin to see how much remains to be accomplished. There are miles and miles of 100-year-old tenements that didn't look good even when they were first built a century ago. Young toughs glare at strangers, standing on streets littered with broken bottles, empty grocery bags, and other debris. The scene is one of desolation, all within a 35-minute train ride from Manhattan's Disneyfied Times Square.
This is equally true of the Bronx, again a half-hour ride from the city's centre. My conversation with a poor resident of the Jackson Houses in the South Bronx sums it up rather well:
"Is the neighbourhood safe?"
"No, there's crime here all the time and it's gettin' worse."
"Are you aware that we went from close to 2,500 murders a year in the early 1990s to less than 500 last year? That's an 80 per cent drop."
"Oh, yeah? Well, let me tell you something, mister: if there's 500 murders a year now, then 400 of them is happening right outside my window."E
'The New York Nobody Knows: Walking 6,000 Miles in the City' by William B Helmreich is out now (£19.95, Princeton Press)
In 1935, Phyllis Pearsall mapped the streets of London on foot (Rex Features)
The woman who walked London
Tirelessly traversing the streets of a city is not just the preserve of male strollers such as William Helmreich – we have a pioneering woman to thank for the original London A-Z. Phyllis Pearsall, in 1935, mapped the streets of the capital on foot, after she got hopelessly lost one soggy night trying to find a party with an out-of-date map. Legend has it, she would rise at 5am to walk the 3,000 miles of London's 23,000 roads, often working 18-hour days.
Her map had almost as far to travel before it reached the public. No one wanted to publish, so Pearsall founded her own Geographers' A-Z Map Company to print The A-Z Atlas and Guide to London and Suburbs in 1936. She hawked her hard-won wares round retailers; eventually, WH Smith bought 250, on the guarantee they'd get a refund if the copies didn't shift. But the A-Z was an instant hit. Aside from during the Second World War – when map-selling was a no-no – it's been in continuous publication since.
Pearsall's aim was to make it user-friendly, and the straightforward indexing system gave the map its name. She cheated the look, so streets appear proportionally larger than they actually are – and therefore easier to find and follow.
Mapping was in the family: her father, Alexander Gross, was a Hungarian cartographer. Born in 1906, she attended Roedean School for Girls – until her father was declared bankrupt and fled to America. When she returned to London, after a spell in Paris, in 1935, it was as an artist she considered herself, until her death in 1996. The map was only ever supposed to help fund a painterly existence – even if it is today considered a design classic.

Defunct Raleigh incubator could make a comeback
The defunct Raleigh Business and Technology Center could get a second wind.
It's been a year since city leaders yanked its funding amid an audit that turned up "significant" finance issues at the center.
On Tuesday, city leaders heard from local thinkers – everyone from IBM (NYSE: IBM) veterans to Cisco (Nasdaq: CSCO) engineers to entrepreneurs – on ways the incubator could be reinvented. They were all part of a "visioning team," says city CIO Gail Roper. They met three times to talk about how to utilize the space.
Bizspace Spotlight
"Really, the report was around all of the vast opportunities that we can have out of that space," she says, telling me the team didn't arrive at one, sole opinion on how to revive the incubator.
But the team did talk about ways broaden the focus, opening the space up to a larger set of entrepreneurs.
Since 2000, tenants of the nonprofit had to be minority-owned businesses.
But that was then. Anything could happen this time around, Roper says.
You may recall $100,000 in unexplained payments led Raleigh police to start investigating the center last year.
The center had received more than $160,000 from the city annually, and didn't have to pay rent. The city had contracted with the company as a business incubator and provider of other training services.
What do you think the city should do with the space? Tell us in the comments.

Red states, blue states . . . are we no longer the United States? Drawing on polling results and other data, Morris P. Fiorina examines the disconnect between an unrepresentative "political class" and the citizenry it purports to represent. " Disconnect" depicts politicians out of touch with the larger public, distorting issues and information to appeal to narrow interest groups. It can help readers better understand the political divide between leaders and the American public--and help steer a course for change.

"When it comes to the EU budget, there is full agreement in the European Council," Van Rompuy told a news conference, allaying concerns that the nearly 1 trillion euro package of spending measures could be derailed by a last-minute hitch.
Britain's rebate, won in 1984, was created to offset the relatively lower share of cash it receives from EU agricultural and infrastructure funds compared with other countries.
The row centered on a change to how rural development funds are paid to EU member states that joined the bloc after 2004 - and which are not included in Britain's rebate calculation - which threatened to shrink the payment by around 10 percent.
At the start of the summit talks on Thursday evening, British Prime Minister David Cameron had cast doubt over approval of a deal on the 2014-2020 budget by promising to fight off a last-minute attempt to shrink the rebate cheque.
"It's absolutely essential that we stick to the deal we reached in February and that we protect the British rebate, and I'll make sure that we do that," Cameron told reporters at the start of the talks in Brussels.
British officials were satisfied with the final outcome.
Earlier on Thursday, EU negotiators overcame opposition from the European Parliament to secure a political agreement on spending plans, which have been in negotiation for months.
Under the deal, the figures agreed by leaders in February will remain unchanged. But the parliament won concessions that will allow unspent money to be transferred from one year to the next, rather than returning to national budgets as at present.
EU officials have said the change could allow spending to rise over the next seven-year period, despite the lower expenditure ceiling agreed by leaders, because actual spending will be closer to the upper limits than at present.
Once rubber-stamped by the European Parliament, the deal will unlock 960 billion euros in funding for the next seven years, funding everything from roads and bridges in poorer eastern European member states to subsidies for farmers and fishermen in France and Spain.

Leadership In The Obama Era: A PR Blitz On The Fiscal Cliff
This is what you get when you elect a community organizer with no executive experience to replace the complete SCOAMF who was in office from 2009-2012
(Washington Post) The White House signaled Tuesday that it will try to marshal the momentum from President Obama's reelection triumph into another victory at the negotiating table, launching a full-fledged public relations effort to avoid a "fiscal cliff" that could jolt the nation back toward recession.
Administration officials said Obama will hit the road this week for a campaign-style series of events with ordinary Americans, including a visit to a toy manufacturer in suburban Philadelphia on Friday. That trip and others will be aimed at increasing pressure on Congress to reach an agreement on heading off a series of automatic spending cuts and tax increases that are scheduled to begin in January.
The push comes as top Democratic and Republican leaders work to avoid a standoff on the issue, which includes debate about Obama's insistence that tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans enacted by President George W. Bush should expire.
So, instead of talking with those who are actually negotiating the details of some sort of compromise plan (of course, with Obama, it's typically "talking down to") he goes into
what he knows best the only mode he knows, that of the permanent campaign. He won't be putting any ideas, other than "raise taxes, raise taxes, sqwack, Obama want a cracker" (I'm sure someone will find a way to consider that raaaaacist), on the table. In fact, I'm quite confident that he will take most entitlement spending reform off the table.
Obama's move to mobilize his reelection apparatus for the fiscal debate signals that he intends to follow through on remarks he made during the campaign, when he suggested that major reform required public pressure from outside the Beltway.
"You can't change Washington from the inside," he said at a Univision forum in Miami in September. "You can only change it from the outside."
And since Obama is incompetent except when it comes to campaigning, he'll hit the road, which gives him a good opportunity to have some great lunches that Michelle's food agitation program won't allow school children to have, all while avoiding becoming involved in the hard work negotiating the details. This is leadership in the Obama era: duck responsibility, act as a community agitator, let others do the hard work, put no plan on the table.

Consumer confidence is holding up at high levels, pointing to greater household spending and a growing economy.
The latest ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Index was 123.9, largely unchanged on a month ago, but still high compared with the historic average of 116.1.
Consumers appeared "self-assured", ANZ said, and stripping out the typical seasonal pattern, confidence was inching higher.
The seasonally adjusted headline measure showed a 3 point lift from 124 to 127 - the fourth successive monthly rise.
"It's starting to look like a trend" ANZ said.
Confidence was lifting on the back of a broader economic expansion, not just a recovery from the past recession. The economy grew 2.4 per cent in the March year, according to Statistics NZ figures out yesterday.
ANZ's consumer and business confidence surveys are flagging growth lifting to about 3.7 per cent by the end of this year, ANZ said.
Consumers said they felt marginally better off financially than a year ago. They also expected to be better off in a year from now, at a net 33 per cent positive, though not quite as upbeat as last month.
People also think it is a good time to buy a big household item, at a net 41 per cent, down from 44 per cent last month.
Consumer confidence reached its best level in Wellington since 2007, but Canterbury remained the most upbeat region. All regions were more confident, aside from Auckland.

New FBI Data Shows Hate Crimes Based on Sexual Orientation On Rise
Originally printed 12/6/2012 (Issue 2049 - Between The Lines News)
WASHINGTON - For the first time, crimes directed against individuals on the basis of sexual orientation are the second most frequent hate crime committed after crimes based on race, according to the 2011 Hate Crimes statistics released Dec. 10 by the FBI as part of the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program. Surpassing crimes committed on the basis of religion, the number of reported hate crimes committed against gay men and lesbians increased from 1,277 in 2010 to 1,293 in 2011.
"The 2011 FBI hate crimes data is a sad reminder that even as we make great strides toward equality under the law, LGBT people in face dangers in America," said HRC President Chad Griffin. "We must rid our country of the violence that has devastated our community for far too long."
Hate crimes statistics are submitted to the FBI by law enforcement agencies across the country on a voluntary basis - there is no requirement under the law for agencies to submit the data. In 2011, the number of agencies reporting this data dropped to 14,575, a decrease from 14,977 the previous year. Of these data-submitting agencies, only 1,944 reported even a single hate crime to the FBI, the lowest number of agencies reporting one or more hate crimes since 2002.
Crimes reported to the FBI involve those motivated by biases based on race, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity/national origin, and disability. Currently, the FBI does not collect data on hate crimes committed on the basis of gender identity. Under the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, the FBI will begin collecting this data in 2013 and will report these statistics beginning in 2014. HRC and partner organizations have worked with the FBI to implement changes to hate crimes data collection since the passage of the Act in 2009, assisting in updating the agency's crime reporting form and training materials to include gender identity.
"We commend the FBI for recognizing the needs of transgender Americans, who face violence at alarming and disproportionate rates," added Griffin. Hate crime data will help law enforcement agencies better understand how to serve and protect the LGBT community."
Reporting hate crimes to the FBI is a criterion in HRC's new Municipal Equality Index (MEI), the first ever rating system of LGBT inclusion in municipal law, which was released in November. Such reporting demonstrates law enforcement's attention to such crimes and ensures that the larger law enforcement community is able to accurately gauge the scope of and responses to hate crimes.FBI Hate Crimes Statistics can be viewed at: http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/hate-crime/2011.

Diarra commits to UConn
UConn secured a verbal commitment from Mamadou Diarra, a 6-foot-8 forward, on Friday morning.
Amida Brimah's signed letter of intent arrived at the UConn basketball office on Monday, allowing coach Kevin Ollie to talk about the promising recruit.
Ollie is clearly excited about the addition of Brimah, a 6-foot-11, 215 pound center from Archbishop Coleman Carroll High School in Miami.
"Amida was one of the most passionate basketball players I saw during the entire recruiting period, and I fell in love with his passion for the game," Ollie said in a released statement. "He showed leadership both on and off the court, and then he was the best player in the game."
Brimah, a native of Ghana, is relatively new to the sport, playing organized basketball for just over three years. He's made great strides during that time.
He averaged 16.0 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 7.2 blocked shots per game last season, shooting 68 percent from the floor and 72 percent from the foul line. He finished with five triple-doubles for Carroll, which went 26-5 overall and reached the Florida Class 4A regional semifinals.
"We think Amida can be another in the long line of outstanding UConn big men," Ollie said. "He's a terrific shot-blocker and rebounder. He's obviously got to get stronger, but he's got a chance to make an impact right away. I love the fact that he is dying to get up here this summer."
Ollie's incoming recruiting class also includes 6-9 forward Kentan Facey of Glen Head, N.Y.. and 6-4 guard Terrence Samuel of Brooklyn.
Brimah visited with his future UConn teammates last week, traveling to New York to watch them play in the Jordan Brand Classic Regional game.
"With Amida joining Kentan and Terrence, we think we have three new players coming in who can all help us," Ollie said. "What I like best is they each have a relentless motor that just keeps going. They are excited to play basketball."
Brimah, who speaks English, French and four African dialects, plans to study hospitality management at UConn.
UConn secured a verbal commitment from Mamadou Diarra, a 6-foot-8 forward, on Friday morning.
For the second straight spring, UConn coach Kevin Ollie is the subject of NBA coaching rumors.
Ryan Boatright shot his way into the 3-point championship final on Thursday night at Butler University's Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
UConn's frontcourt depth took a hit with the news that forward Rakim Lubin plans to transfer after just one season in Storrs.
UConn is limping into its NIT opener against Arizona State tomorrow night in Storrs.
Prior to its impressive American Athletic Conference Championship tournament run, UConn looked more like an NIT than NCAA post-season team.
UConn associate head coach Glen Miller didn't plan on getting much sleep on Saturday night.
Today's American Athletic Conference Championship semifinal doubleheader is underway here at the XL Center in Hartford. A crowd in the 12,000-13,000 range is expected for the UConn-Tulsa game. Tip-off time is 5 p.m.
UConn did what it was supposed to do on Thursday night.

Senators Seek National Park Status for Illinois SiteCHICAGO (AP) - Illinois' U.S. senators want the federal government to consider national park status for the site of the first town founded and built by a freed slave before the Civil War.
U.S. Sens. Dick Durbin and Mark Kirk say the New Philadelphia archaeological site in western Illinois has "exceptional historical significance." They say designating it as part of the national park system would ensure the area is protected.
New Philadelphia was plotted in 1836 as the first fully racially integrated community before the Civil War.
Durbin and Kirk say architectural features such as foundations, cellars and wells remain but are threatened by agricultural activity.
Last week the senators sent a letter to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee asking to advance legislation that would authorize a study of the site.

Cole fined by Chelsea over air-rifle incident
Monday 28 February 2011
Chelsea have fined Ashley Cole over his accidental shooting of a student at the club's training ground a week ago. The club has investigated the extraordinary incident, which took place on 20 February, and believe the matter is now closed.
Cole, who earns £120,000 a week, was allegedly holding a powerful air rifle to show to team-mates when he accidentally shot Tom Cowan, a 21-year-old sports science student who had been on placement at Chelsea's training ground in Cobham, Surrey.
Cole claims he did not realise the weapon – which does not require a licence – was loaded. Chelsea's medical staff treated the wound in the student's side, and yesterday sources close to the player were playing down the incident, claiming the shot was a graze and did not break the skin.
However, the club last night issued a brief statement, which read: "We have fully investigated the incident and we are taking appropriate action. We will not be commenting further as it is an internal matter."
The bizarre incident, though, is hugely embarrassing for Chelsea, who had introduced tougher security measures at their training HQ following previous newspaper revelations that John Terry arranged tours of the complex in exchange for donations to charity. Cole will take his customary place in Chelsea team to play Premier League leaders Manchester United at Stamford Bridge tomorrow evening.
It is not the first time Cole has been accused of breaching protocol. Last February it was reported that he had tricked a club official into lying for him over an alleged extra-marital affair.
This month Cole, 30, became England's most capped left-back and was voted his country's player of the year by supporters. Cole's season took a turn for the worse when he missed a penalty last weekend as Everton knocked holders Chelsea out of the FA Cup on a shootout.
The air-gun incident comes with Chelsea in dire need of a victory over United to move back above Tottenham Hotspur into fourth place in the Premier League, amid growing stories of discontent within the camp.
Didier Drogba is reported to be unhappy at the way he has been forced out of the team by £50m signing Fernando Torres. Drogba, who turns 33 next month, was dropped for the recent games against FC Copenhagen and Fulham to make room for Torres up front. Earlier this season he had to play despite suffering from malaria because Chelsea were already missing Terry and Frank Lampard through injuries.
Drogba has been squeezed out in recent weeks as Carlo Ancelotti has tinkered with formations in an attempt to discover the system that best compliments the predatory ability of Torres.
The 2-0 victory over Copenhagen last week, in which Anelka scored twice, was the team's best display for a month following the deadline-day signing of Torres, and it is unlikely that Ancelotti will make further changes ahead of such a crucial game, leaving Drogba facing an increasingly uncertain future.
Ancelotti, however, will be keenly aware that the last Chelsea manager to leave out Drogba for a prolonged period of time was Luiz Felipe Scolari, who was promptly sacked when results dipped.
