Condition, Manhunt Begins for Suspect
by Breitbart News 2 May 2015
UPDATE, 8:42 PM: The New York Daily News has updated its coverage to note that the officer
was shot in the face:
A plainclothes NYPD cop was shot in the cheek in Queens
Saturday — and a massive manhunt was underway for the gunman, sources told the
Daily News.
The unidentified cop was among a team of anti-crime officers
conducting a car stop on the corner of 212th St. and 104th Road in Queens
Village about 6:15 p.m when the suspect fired three rounds, sources said.
The officer — who joined the force in 2010 — was rushed to
Jamaica Hospital in a patrol car.
He was listed in critical but stable condition. A
high-ranking police source said his injuries were not life-threatening.
Officers sealed off exits to the Belt Parkway in the hope of
containing the shooter, sources said.
“They believe he may have gotten in a car,” a source said.
“Everyone’s on the alert for this guy.”
One person was in custody Saturday night, sources said — but
it wasn’t clear if it was the shooter.
One area resident said police officers were swarming the
neighborhood by 6:30 p.m…[…]
A man who lives one block from the scene said he was outside
when he heard the crack of gunfire.
“We were standing right on our lawn and we heard two shots,”
the man said, declining to give his name.
The shooting marks the fifth NYPD officer gunned down since
December.
UPDATE, 8:28 PM: David Webb reports from New York:
Perpetrators are barricaded. Male black and female black.
Police officer is likely to die, and is from 105th precinct and was shot in
Queens at 104 and 212th St.
Other law enforcement officers reportedly saw a shady car
pull up next to the vehicle. A suspect fired rounds from the car, striking the
officer.
UPDATE, 8:19 PM: A suspect has reportedly been taken
into custody.
