At approx. 4:30am today members of the Emergency Service Division were conducting a search warrant at 230 Brook Ave, Bronx. Upon entering the apartment officers went to a rear bedroom where they were confronted by a man brandishing a machete type knife with a 2’ blade.pic.twitter.com/OuMeQn6Dyr
The uniformed officers ordered the subject to drop the weapon & he refused to comply. As the subject continued to approach the lead officer, the officer discharged one shot from his service weapon striking the subject in the chest. Officers called for an ambulance & rendered aid
The subject was taken to a local hospital where he was pronounced deceased. The investigation is ongoing.
Why do the police shoot to kill? Surely a leg shot would of put him down. Thank fk I live in the UK
Thank goodness you live in the UK for our sake to. We have enough fucking liberals here as it is.
Literally the same statement could have been made 150 years ago. When will policing modernize?
Imagine your father/mother is a cop, an armed person is walking towards them. Not complying. Discuss..
Obviously Andrew you have no clue what someone with a machete can do to you. Stun guns are not a sure stop. Shooting someone at times is not a sure stop. This is not Hollywood my friend. Officers are trained to shoot to stop. Not kill Center mass is the efficient way to stop
NYPD kills 2 citizens with knives in the Bronx. And yet you let a man live for killing 8 people on a bike path?!?? NYPD not doing things the right way.
Well done!! As taught!!
