Singer Josh Groban Live Tweets Terror Attack

Singer Josh Groban was close enough to Tuesday's terrorist attack to hear gunshots, but didn't see the attack or aftermath.

Still, he was shaken up and live-tweeted what was happening.

Groban's afternoon started peacefully enough with a trip to the dog park:

Two things get me through my week. My shrink, and meeting friends at the dog park. pic.twitter.com/SXYFq3kSAL

But moments later, Groban reported hearing gunfire.

"Oh my god I just heard gun shots and ran with my dog. Downtown. F***."

I hope everyone’s ok. Was half a block from me, didn’t see it but heard 8-10 quick rounds fired off. Be safe with your kids out there.

I’m shaking. That’s the corner I was supposed to have my coffee but my dog pulled me into the park half a block away 10 min before shooting. https://t.co/AvQeRv7Jha

Once I got far enough away I took this video of the quick response from our amazing NYPD and NYFD pic.twitter.com/v0nwJiqmDw

Groban later described the surreal scene of seeing trick-or-treaters in the streets amid the sounds of sirens in the aftermath of the attack.

Devastated for the victims and their families tonight & inspired by the spirit of this city. Sirens and trick or treaters everywhere. 💙🗽

Like many New Yorkers, Groban carried on in the spirit of others in the city as the official Halloween parade carried on as scheduled.

the costumes are premium A+ platinum level awesome tonight on the streets. I especially dig the parent/kid combos like Dr. Brenner/Eleven.
