Twenty-five-year-old NYPD Officer Brian Moore died Monday morning after fighting for his life following an attack by an ex-con. You may have heard that Officer Moore was shot Saturday evening after confronting, with his partner in their patrol car, a THUG on the street whom the two officers said they saw “adjusting an object in his waistband.” When they asked the man—whom we now know is Demetrius Blackwell—what the object was, he pulled a pistol from his waistband and shot into the cruiser, hitting Moore in the cheek, but missing his partner. He was rushed to Jamaica Hospital where surgery was performed, and then placed in a medically induced coma. More, from the Daily News on this morning’s tragic news:
